Multifocal contact lenses offer the best of both worlds: no glasses, along with good near and distance vision.
Once we reach our mid-40s, presbyopia – the normal, age-related loss of flexibility of the lens inside our eye – makes it difficult for us to focus on near objects. In the past, reading glasses were the only option available to contact lens wearers who wanted to read a menu or do other everyday tasks that require good near vision. But today, a number of multifocal contact lens options are available for you to consider.

Optometry
Optometry is a professional practice primarily concerned with eye and vision care. Optometrists are primary eye care providers trained to diagnose and treat common eye diseases as well as refractive (use of lens) vision correction. Optometrists hold a Doctor of Optometry (O.D.) degree. Some optometrists complete 1-2 year sub-specialty training in pediatric eye care, geriatric eye care, specialty contact lens, ocular disease or neuro-optometry.
Optometrists use a variety of techniques to assess vision, test the ability to focus on and discern objects, and to detect eye diseases or signs of tumors or other brain anomalies. There are numerous eye diseases and disorders with some of the more common being retinal detachment, macular degeneration, glaucoma, floaters, cross-eyed tendency, disorders of refrations (nearsightedness, farsightedness, presbyopia, astigmatism), color blindness, blindness, red eye, eye infections, and dry eyes. Optometrists prescribe corrective lens (glasses, contact lenses) to correct vision problems.
