For those needing specialty contact lenses, scleral lenses are often the recommended option. Among these, EyePrintPRO stands out as the most customizable and highest-performing scleral contact lens available. However, while EyePrintPRO offers top-tier performance, it may not always be necessary, as other viable alternatives may be available to patients.

During the initial comprehensive exam, Dr. Letourneau will use advanced technology and his extensive experience to determine if EyePrintPRO is essential or if other options may suffice.

What are Multifocal
Contact Lenses?

Multifocal contact lenses are specialized lenses designed to correct presbyopia, a condition that typically occurs as you age, making it difficult to focus on near objects. Unlike traditional single-vision lenses that correct either near or distance vision, multifocal contact lenses incorporate multiple prescriptions into a single lens. This innovative design allows you to enjoy clear vision at various distances, eliminating the need for separate reading glasses or bifocals.

How Do Multifocal Contact Lenses Work?

Multifocal contact lenses employ advanced optical technologies to provide seamless vision correction. These lenses feature distinct zones or concentric rings that correspond to different prescriptions for near, intermediate, and distance vision. As your eyes move and focus on objects at varying distances, the appropriate zone of the lens comes into play, ensuring a clear and comfortable visual experience.

There are two main types of multifocal contact lens designs:

Simultaneous Vision Design
In this design, the lens incorporates multiple prescriptions simultaneously, allowing your eyes to utilize the appropriate zone based on the viewing distance. This design can take some time to adjust to, as your brain learns to interpret the different visual inputs.

Alternating Vision Design
Also known as "segmented" or "translating" lenses, these lenses have distinct zones for near and distance vision. As you move your eyes or shift your gaze, the appropriate zone is positioned in front of your pupil, providing the necessary correction.

Eye Conditions That Multifocal
Contact Lenses Can Treat?

Multifocal contact lenses are primarily designed to address the following vision-related conditions:​​​​​​​

Presbyopia
As you age, the natural lenses in your eyes lose flexibility, making it challenging to focus on nearby objects. Multifocal contact lenses can correct this age-related farsightedness, allowing you to see clearly at all distances.

Myopia (Nearsightedness)
If you struggle to see distant objects clearly, multifocal contact lenses can incorporate a prescription to correct myopia, while also providing near and intermediate vision correction.

Hyperopia (Farsightedness)
For individuals with farsightedness, multifocal contact lenses can offer a solution by incorporating a prescription to improve distance vision, along with near and intermediate vision correction.

Astigmatism
Some multifocal contact lenses are designed to correct astigmatism, a condition caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens, resulting in blurred or distorted vision.

Key Benefits of Using Multifocal Contact Lenses?

Choosing multifocal contact lenses can offer numerous advantages, including:

Clear Vision at All Distances
With their innovative design, multifocal contact lenses provide you with clear vision for near, intermediate, and distance tasks, eliminating the need for multiple pairs of glasses or constantly switching between them.

Convenience and Versatility
By combining multiple prescriptions into a single lens, multifocal contact lenses offer unparalleled convenience and versatility, allowing you to seamlessly transition between various activities without compromising your visual clarity.

Natural Appearance
Unlike traditional bifocal or progressive lenses, multifocal contact lenses provide a more natural-looking solution, as the corrective zones are integrated directly into the lens, eliminating the visible lines or segments found in eyeglasses.

Improved Depth Perception
With multifocal contact lenses, you can enjoy improved depth perception and spatial awareness, as both eyes receive consistent visual input, enhancing your overall visual experience.

Reduced Eye Strain
By eliminating the need to constantly switch between different pairs of glasses or squint to see clearly, multifocal contact lenses can help reduce eye strain and fatigue, promoting better overall eye health and comfort.

FABULOUS!!! Quick and VERY efficient. Doctor and staff VERY friendly. When I walked through the doors I was met with a very warm and welcoming staff member. When the Dr was finished, Julian walked with me to the lobby, fixed my broken glasses and was extremely helpful in picking out my new glasses, in fact I had 3 staff members helping me! They were all sooo extremely nice! Thank you!!!!

Ridgeview Eye Care-Olathe is be the best! They have the best customer service around. My glasses of 5 months were broken and not repairable, I went in for help and they reordered the lenses under my warranty, but the frame still did not sit right. My daughter was getting married in just over a week and Lauren told me they would do whatever it takes to get my glasses repaired. 6 days later I got a call that my glasses were ready, I went to pick them up and they had a new pair just in time for me to see my daughter walk down the aisle; this means the world to me that they worked so hard to make this happen. Thank you Ridgeview Eye Care!
