Presbyopia – also known as age-related farsightedness – is a natural process by which near vision becomes blurred. Usually this happens around the age of forty, but it can happen earlier or later. In order to focus properly on close objects, your eye lens must make itself more convex (accommodate). The lens of the eye becomes less elastic over the years, making this increasingly difficult. The accommodation capacity decreases. Reading glasses or multifocal contact lenses offer the solution here.
Multifocal contact lenses
Having trouble reading the fine print? Don’t worry, almost everyone faces this. It’s called presbyopia and usually begins around the age of 40. As you age, the elasticity of your eye lens decreases and focusing at close range becomes more difficult. This is especially noticeable while reading or working at close range. The eye cannot focus as well and needs a reading additive to correct the problem. Don’t feel like using reading glasses? Choose multifocal contact lenses. You’ll see sharply all day long, both far and near.
Multifocal lenses are lenses that allow you to see sharply at all distances. They are an ideal solution for single contact lens wearers, presbyopes and active people.
