Bifocal contact lenses - are they right for you?

Bifocal contact lenses or progressive lenses are available for people with a condition known as presbyopia. People with this condition require different prescriptions for distance and near vision. Bifocal contact lenses seperate the two powers in one contact lens with a distinct line, whereas progressive lenses use a variety of methods to blend the two powers.

Bifocal contact lenses and progressive lenses are both available in regular or disposable styles. Disposable contacts are considered healthier for your eyes because there is less chance of deposit buildups to iritate your eyes.

Disposable style bifocal contact lenses and progressive lenses come in longer term or daily disposable types. The low cost and convenience of these contacts make them an excellent choice for people with better things to do than spending valuable time cleaning their lenses.

Bifocal contact lenses and progressive lenses are especially well suited to active people. Protective prescription eyewear for various racquet sports and swimming is unbelievably expensive, usually in the hundreds of dollars. Now you can buy any low cost off-the-shelf protective eyewear to use in conjunction with your new contacts.
