What is a Bifocal Prescription?

A bifocal prescription is intended for individuals who require vision correction for both distance and near vision. Bifocal lenses contain two distinct optical powers to address these needs effectively. Below is a brief overview:

• Distance Vision: The upper portion of the lens is designed to assist with viewing distant objects clearly.

• Near Vision: The lower portion of the lens supports close-up tasks such as reading, sewing, or other activities that require near vision.

Bifocal lenses are especially beneficial for individuals with presbyopia—a common age-related condition that affects the eye’s ability to focus on nearby objects. With bifocal lenses, users can conveniently see both near and far without the need to switch between multiple pairs of glasses.
