Moniteholinssejä

Moniteholinssejä refers to multifocal contact lenses. These are specialized contact lenses designed to correct presbyopia, a common age-related vision condition that affects the ability to focus on close objects. Unlike single-vision lenses, which correct vision at only one distance, multifocal lenses contain multiple prescriptions within a single lens. This allows for clear vision at various distances, typically near, intermediate, and far.

The design of multifocal contact lenses varies. Some lenses use concentric rings of different prescriptions, with the center for distance vision and the outer rings for near vision, or vice versa. Other designs employ a segmented approach, similar to progressive eyeglasses, where different zones of the lens are dedicated to specific distances. The wearer's pupil size and how the lens sits on the eye play a crucial role in how effectively these different zones are utilized.

Fitting multifocal contact lenses requires a specialized eye examination by an optometrist or ophthalmologist. They will assess the patient's refractive error, eye health, and visual needs to determine the most suitable lens design and prescription. While multifocal contact lenses offer a convenient solution for presbyopia, some individuals may experience a slight adjustment period as their brain learns to utilize the different zones of the lens. Success with these lenses can significantly improve quality of life by reducing the need for reading glasses.
