Multifocal LensesMultifocal contact lenses are a type of corrective lenses that are designed to address presbyopia, a common age-related vision condition. These lenses have different optical powers in different zones of the lens, allowing them to provide clear vision at various distances.
Unlike traditional single-vision contact lenses, multifocal lenses contain multiple focal points. This means that individuals with presbyopia can see clearly both up close and at a distance without the need for reading glasses. |
Aspheric LensesAspheric contact lenses are a type of corrective lenses that have a unique design to improve visual clarity. These lenses are specially crafted to have varying curvatures across their surface, which helps to correct specific refractive errors in the eye.
Unlike traditional spherical lenses, which have a uniform curvature, aspheric lenses are designed to mimic the natural shape of the cornea. This allows for a more precise and customized fit, resulting in improved vision quality. |
Toric LensesToric contact lenses are a type of corrective lenses that are specifically designed to correct astigmatism. Astigmatism is a common refractive error that occurs when the cornea or lens of the eye has an irregular shape, causing blurred or distorted vision.
Unlike regular spherical contact lenses, toric lenses have different powers and curvatures in different meridians of the lens. This allows them to compensate for the irregular shape of the cornea and provide clearer vision for individuals with astigmatism. |
