Bifocals
With the Baby Boomer's now reaching the age of 40, the need for correcting vision at both near and far becomes critical. Our contact lens division specializes in bifocal and bifocal effect (monovision) lens fittings. Presbyopia occurs in every eye as the body ages.
Two Types:
1. Soft Bifocals:
Examples
- 2 week disposables
- 6 month to 1 year
2. Gas Permeables come in two basic lens designs:
- Lined (Top for distance and Bottom for near)
- Simultaneous Vision
