	Multifocal Contact Lenses Multifocal contact lenses are similar to multi focal glasses. They allow the person wearing them to view through more than one magnification. There are different types of multifocal contact lenses. Some multifocal contact lenses have 2 separate lens powers. One for viewing close and the other for looking at a distance. These have a basic bifocal design. Other multifocal contact lenses are designed morelike progressive style lenses for glasses.
	Progressive lenses gradually magnify at different magnification from the bottom of the lens. This type of multifocal contact offers a more realistic type of transition from gradual magnification to full.
Multifocal contact lenses are available in soft and rigid contact lens materials. Often people begin to need multifocal lenses when they are in their early fourties. A condition called presbyopia often begins with a gradual loss of flexibility inside the actual eye lens. This is usually an age related symptom which causes the lens to become kind of hard and less elastic or flexible. This condition directly and negatively affects the ability to focus. This is why you see so many older people wearing bi-focal and or multifocal glasses.
Multifocal contact lenses have come a long way. Now you can even get multifocal contact lenses if you have astigmatism. That's actually kind of amazing when you think some eye doctors still tell their patients that contacts don't work for astigmatism at all. Of course these doctors either haven't been keeping up with technology or don't want to take time to fit a patient properly with contacts for astigmatism. When patients have compounded visual problems along with astigmatism it becomes increasingly difficult to properly fit patients with multifocal contact lenses. Multifocal contact lenses aren't for everybody who has trouble focusing. Often other visual factors come into play creating compounded conditions meaning 2 or more visual defects are present. The only to find out what your options for multifocal contact lenses are is to see your optometrist or eye doctor.
