Although an increasing number of multifocal contact lens (MFCL) options are available, global prescribing rates remain relatively low, primarily due to perceived fitting challenges in the category, according to the latest report from CORE (Centre for Ocular Research & Education).
In CORE’s Contact Lens Update, issue 80, several specialists in the field provide insights and tips for eyecare practitioners to build greater confidence in recommending multifocal lenses and to aid successful wearer adoption.
Professor James Wolffsohn, head of the School of Optometry at Aston University, writes the issue’s opening editorial, presenting a comprehensive overview of the BCLA CLEAR (Continued Learning Evidence-based Academic Reports) presbyopia initiative, providing an update on current knowledge and management of the condition.
