What is the best soft bifocal contact lens available on the market?

There is no one "best" soft bifocal contact lens. Different soft bifocals work differently for different people. There are a number of designs available, including lenses that have the distance portion in the center and lenses that have the reading portion in the center. In addition to soft bifocals, there are many rigid gas permeable (RGP) bifocal options. With both SCL’s and RGP’s, patients may be fit with monovision where one eye is corrected for distance and one eye for near. This fitting strategy may incorporate bifocal contact lenses and is then referred to as modified or enhanced monovision.

Your eye care practitioner will select the best option for you based on the measurements of your eyes and your specific visual demands. The fitting process may take several visits in order to find the lenses that work best for you.
