Pros and cons of multifocal contact lenses
Deteriorating vision is a common problem as a person ages. Doctors typically recommend multifocal contact lenses for those with myopia (nearsightedness), astigmatism, hyperopia (farsightedness), or presbyopia (age-related farsightedness). These lenses allow one to see better and are far more comfortable than contacts or reading glasses. However, they are not for everyone.
