Are Multifocal Lenses Right For You?

Myopia, also known as near-sightedness, affects your distance vision. This means that you may be able to clearly see things that are close but find that distant objects are blurry. It’s a focusing disorder which affects many people but it can be corrected with contact lenses or eyeglasses. 

Near-sightedness affects almost 40% of the US population, including children. The problem is typically diagnosed quite early, typically before the age of 20 during routine eye exams. 

The cause of myopia is a cornea that is too curved or an eye that has grown too long. This makes light focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. Without treatment, near-sightedness will progressively worsen. Multifocal lenses as part of myopia control can slow the progress of this condition. 

Soft multifocal lenses for myopia can be worn as a daytime vision correction solution while working to slow the development of the condition. Discuss your options with our team at Classic Vision Care in Kennesaw, Marietta or Atlanta, Georgia.

Multifocal Lenses vs. Our Other Myopia Control Treatments

Managing myopia is especially important for children and this is why we have a range of myopia control treatments.

These include:

  • Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) lenses. These are specially designed to be worn overnight in order to reshape the cornea. This temporarily improves vision during the day.
  • Daily contact lenses which have been proven to slow the progression of near-sightedness.
  • Low dose atropine eye drops to slow myopia progression.
  • Multifocal lenses either in glasses or contact lenses can help to manage myopia while also correcting the wearer’s vision.

Our child-safe multifocal contact lenses can improve a child’s vision at multiple distances. This is due to the varying strengths of the lenses.

In comparison to nightly treatments such as atropine drops or wearing CRT lenses, multifocal lenses are convenient and manage myopia as they are worn during the day. They also provide a non-pharmacological approach to the condition of near-sightedness.
