When this option may be discussed
They may help people with age-related near-focusing difficulties reduce their reliance on reading glasses. A trial and individual assessment help determine how well a design suits your visual needs.
Considering near, intermediate and distance tasks
Age-related near-focusing difficulty, often called presbyopia, can change what you need from correction. The discussion includes reading, screen work and distance tasks so that a trial can be assessed against your everyday needs.
A trial rather than a promised result
Multifocal lenses may reduce reliance on reading glasses, but the result is individual. Vision for different tasks, comfort and fit are reviewed. Further assessment or design refinement may be appropriate.
Comparing other lens options
Soft and custom soft designs may be relevant to the wider prescription and fitting discussion. Your needs may differ from another person’s even when both are exploring near and distance vision. The illustrative optical-zone graphic is not a specification for every multifocal lens.
Questions about multifocal contact lenses
Do multifocal lenses contain more than one power?
Yes. They combine different powers to support near, intermediate and distance vision. Designs vary.
Will I never need reading glasses again?
That is not guaranteed. The existing service describes potentially reducing reliance on reading glasses, with a trial to assess how well a design meets your needs.
What should I discuss during a multifocal assessment?
Describe the near, intermediate and distance tasks that matter to you and any previous lens experience. These help give the trial a practical context.
