Multifocal lenses
A multifocal lens has more than one power zone, so one lens can help with near and far. The doctor chooses the design for your work and hobbies.
Who it is for
Adults who need help with reading and distance, often from their 40s
Contact lens wearers who now hold their phone farther away
People who don't want to switch between glasses and lenses
Anyone curious about monovision

What happens at the fitting
- 01
Step 1: Exam and measurements
About 45 minutes. We check near and far vision, and ask what you read, drive and look at most.
- 02
Step 2: Pick a design
The doctor chooses a lens design and may suggest monovision, where each eye is set for a different distance.
- 03
Step 3: Trial pair at home
Wear the pair through your real week. Read a menu, check your phone, drive at dusk. Write down what is hard.
- 04
Step 4: Check visit
Bring your notes. The doctor adjusts the power or the design, and you try again before anything is ordered.
Results vary. Some people adapt in days, and some need a second design.

Questions
Questions about multifocal lenses
Will I still need reading glasses?
Maybe, for some tasks or in dim light. The doctor tells you what to expect for your eyes and your week.
What is monovision?
One eye is set for distance and the other for near. Some people like it and some don't, and the doctor can let you try it.
What if the first design doesn't work?
That is what the trial pair is for. We change the design at your check visit, and you try again before you order.
