Bausch + Lomb presents the multifocal silicone hydrogel contact lens
Eye health specialist Bausch + Lomb announced the launch of the Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day Multifocal silicone hydrogel daily disposable contact lens at Opti 2026. The new lens combines advanced technologies for moisture and comfort and features Bausch + Lomb's proven 3-zone progressive design.
This makes the Ultra One Day Multifocal the most progressive lens for the ageing eye.1 Although presbyopia is a natural part of ageing, it often means more than just challenges with vision, especially for contact lens wearers: more than two out of three contact lens wearers with the onset of presbyopia experience less enjoyment of their hobbies due to deteriorating near vision.2
„We are proud to apply our latest science and contact lens technologies to meet the comfort, moisture and vision needs of people with presbyopia to improve their quality of life,“ said Yang Yang, President of Vision Care, Bausch + Lomb. „People who already wear contact lenses want to continue to lead an active lifestyle even when they are over 40. And research shows that 80 percent are convinced that contact lenses could better accompany their modern, multimedia lives“ 2, adds Yang Yang.
Why ageing eyes need progressive contact lenses
Changes to the ocular surface that occur with age, as well as lifestyle factors such as increased use of digital devices, can affect presbyopic contact lens wearers and lead to eye strain and discomfort.3,4 Breakthrough Advanced MoistureSeal and ComfortFeel technologies work in synergy with the tear film as a complete system to help maintain homeostasis on the ocular surface and deliver superior comfort for a full 16 hours. 5,6,7 The 3-Zone Progressive Design is based on comprehensive clinical findings on 7 factors of human vision measured at 9 critical distances.8 The combined technologies for the needs of ageing eyes enable the proven 3-zone progressive design to deliver relaxed clear vision and smooth transitions between near, intermediate and distance.1,9 A complete design with high oxygen permeability, low modulus, easy handling and UV Protect.1
According to a recent study, 90 % of contact lens wearers with presbyopia onset surveyed agreed that Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day Multifocal allowed them to effortlessly switch between tasks throughout the day, and 91 percent agreed that the lenses were comfortable to wear even when using digital devices for extended periods of time.1 In addition, the opticians surveyed agreed that the Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day Multifocal one-day contact lenses are easy to fit for 99 percent of customers.1
