Varifocal (for Presbyopia)

As our eyes age, the crystalline lens inside becomes harder and can no longer change shape to vary its focus. This means that after the age of 45-50, we all find that we need extra help adjusting our focus from distance to near. These Varifocal contact lens options provide a stronger prescription for near, allowing you to read more comfortably without glasses, whilst maintaining great distance vision at the same time!

About Contact Lenses:

Contact Lenses are increasingly becoming more and more popular with the estimated 75% of people who need some form of vision correction.

Their increased popularity may be due to the improvements in lens design technology over the years. Contact Lenses are now safer, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever before. With improved water content, lenses can be worn for longer without making the eyes feel dry or uncomfortable.

It is now possible to correct astigmatism (where eyes are more rugby-ball shaped), and presbyopia (where distance- and near-vision requires different correction) with Contact Lenses, meaning that they are available to more and more people every day.

There are many different Contact Lenses available, and our Optometrists have the equipment and the experience to find the lens that works best for you.
