Visual performance of new affordable and auto-adherent lenses for presbyopia correction.

Reading glasses, bifocals or multifocal lenses are the most common solutions. In this work, we demonstrate the near visual performance of new elastomeric auto-adherent lenses developed for the correction of presbyopia. Visual acuity and contrast sensitivity were measured in 10 presbyopic subjects. The results showed that wearing either conventional trial ophthalmic lenses or the new elastomeric lenses provided similar visual quality. These elastomeric lenses can be placed in, or removed from the distance-vision spectacles of the wearers, providing an affordable solution for correcting presbyopia at its clinical onset, which might be especially useful in subjects with different refractive error in each eye and for those with astigmatismeng© 2023 The Authors.
