Multifocal contact lenses for presbyopia

Multifocal contact lenses (also called varifocal contact lenses) are intended for the correction of presbyopia, an age-related issue that is caused by the loss of elasticity of the lens in the eye and often occurs in people over 40 years of age. They are comparable to spectacles with bifocals or progressive lenses because they have multiple focal points. Multifocal lenses allow clear vision at all distances and the ability to see comfortably without glasses. Multifocal lenses can also help relieve some health-related problems such as headaches, dizziness, or eye strain.
