Glasses are the standard solution for people with presbyopia who want a better vision. But now, with the new technology of multifocal lenses, it is not the only one. Multifocal lenses operate in concentric circles in front of our eyes, so that all the gradations in our visual specter are stable. This means that with the use of multifocal lenses you will have optimal vision at all distances - near, far and in between. Unlike multifocal glasses, they do not have areas with peripheral optical aberrations, so they are very easy and quick to get used to.

 

The modern multifocal contact lenses introduced this year, have significant advantages compared to their ancestors:

 

• Personalized design for each different degree of presbyopia.
• Correction of astigmatism with precise correction of prescription grades
• Personalized application parameters of lens curvatures, offering maximum comfort and quality of vision.

These revolutionary options make the new OMEGA 6 multifocal contact lenses the ideal solution for anyone who needs to correct different degrees of near and far vision.

A study conducted at Ohio State University by Jennifer Swingle Fogt and colleagues, showed that visual performance using multifocal glasses and contact lenses is statistically the same.

The study involved 24 patients who were tested for response time, peripheral visual field perception, hand-eye coordination, and dynamic visual acuity. Performance tests were conducted using multifocal glasses and later on, using multifocal contact lenses. The patents were also given some days for adjustment between each solution.

 

After analyzing the results, the researchers stated that they now prefer the use of multifocal contact lenses, rather than multifocal glasses.

The most common way to improve your vision is with the use of glasses that are for myopia, presbyopia or multifocal.

With the development of modern technology, we now have a second solution for people who want to improve their vision at all distances, which is the use of multifocal contact lenses.

 

Why didn’t people with presbyopia choose them in the past?

 

Multifocal lenses appeared many years ago, but were only used by a small percentage of people with presbyopia. This was justified, because the lenses did not have the ability to correct astigmatism. Moreover, the multifocal technology in this small area of ​​the lens couldn’t sustain the technology of correction for all distances.

 

This problem, however, is no longer an issue since the creation of the most modern multifocal lenses, Omega 6. These lenses can correct even small-scale astigmatism (40% of the population has some, albeit small, degree of astigmatism). Now, thanks to the use of new technologies and the expertise of EYEART Laboratories’ opticians, everyone can have a personalized lens which can meet any of their needs, thus improving their vision and quality of life.
