Multifocal Contact Lenses Fitting Methods Comparison

This was a prospective, cross-over, double-masked (participants and investigator), randomized order of testing study. It compared two fitting approaches for silicone hydrogel multifocal contact lenses to assess which method achieved greater vision satisfaction and performance.

• Best corrected visual acuity of at least 20/25 in each eye;
• Have normal eyes with the exception of the need for visual correction;
• Current multifocal contact lens wearer;
• Spectacle refraction:

Distance: Sphere: -6.00D to + 4.00D Astigmatism: 0.00D to -0.75D Near Addition: Established Presbyopes: +1.50D & +1.75D

• Be willing and able to adhere to the instructions set in the clinical protocol and maintain the appointment schedule.

Exclusion criteria

• Ocular anterior segment infection, inflammation, abnormality, or active disease that would contraindicate contact lens wear;
• Use of systemic or ocular medications for which contact lens wear could be contraindicated as determined by the investigator;
