People with multiple vision challenges often have to change eyewear between tasks or use reading glasses with their contacts. This is because their current eyewear only addresses one of those vision issues at a time. Our team at Dr. Jay Rigney Eye Care & Eyewear explains how multi focal contact lenses can put a stop to this.

What Are Multi Focal Contact Lenses?

You’re probably familiar with bifocal eyeglasses. These have one section up top for the person’s primary vision needs and a segment below for another. For instance, the top section is often for seeing more clearly at a distance, while the lower segment is for reading. They are beneficial because the wearer only needs one pair of eyeglasses.

Benefits of Multi Focal Contact Lenses

The main benefit is, of course, being able to see more clearly with just one pair of lenses. You don’t have to switch between eyewear or wear reading glasses and contacts at the same time. Not only does this save you from frustration, but it also can save you time and money as you are only maintaining, cleaning, and replacing one thing instead of several.

You also get to enjoy a less abrupt adjustment period than you would if you had to swap one pair of glasses for another. These lenses can certainly help reduce eyestrain. Additionally, EyeMed and other vision plans can help cover the cost.
