Acuview Bifocal Contact Lenses
Once upon a time, contacts were limited to either helping one better far away, or up close. Astigmatism used to be a challenged, but that has since been tackled by contact lens innovators. So what is new in the world of prescription contact lenses? Acuview bifocal contact lenses are one of the most intriguing advances in contact lens technology. Acuview bifocal contact lenses help correct presbyopia.
The Condition
So what is presbyopia anyway? Presbyopia is the natural change that takes place within our eyes as we age and happens to most people. This condition hinders the ability for the human eye to change focus between things far away and things close up.
The Signs
One of the most obvious signs of people who may need Acuview bifocal contact lenses is the moving of things farther and farther away in order to see them. Imagine your middle school teacher holding your term paper three feet away from her so that he or she could read it.
Someone with presbyopia may also struggle with reading things close up or trying to read in dim lighting. These symptoms may also be accompanied with headaches.
The Lens
Acuvue claims that the lens their company has created has five concentric circles that are meant to help you see clearly at all different distances. The circles allow the wearer to adjust without having to worry about which part of the lens to use, as they would have with a pair of bifocal glasses.
