Presbyopia
No matter what you eat, how much you
exercise, or whatever else you do to be
healthy and keep looking young, your eyes
are changing as you age.
Aging causes your
eyes to lose their ability to adjust between
near and far objects. The lens within
your eye is less able to change its shape
in order to focus on items up close.
This is known as presbyopia
and it is an inevitable result of aging
. . . but now, at least you can keep it
to yourself.
Multifocal Lenses
work by enabling your eye to view near
objects through special areas on the lens
surface. The lens translates naturally
with the movement of your eye just like
you would in a pair of mutifocal glasses.
Success
is important. Although, Multifocals have
a high success rate in correcting presbyopia,
there are some patients for whom multifocal
lenses are not the answer. Ultimately,
your contact lens fitter will know what
is best for you. Please see our specialty
lens page for more information on
multifocal lenses.
