Clear vision at any distance - Do you struggle to read the small text on your mobile phone? If so, worry not, Alcon’s unique multifocal design ensures sharpness of vision and smooth transitions when viewing objects up close or far away.
All-day comfort - The slow release of moisture (courtesy of the blink activated technology), as well as a blend of moisturizing agents built into the lenses themselves, ensures eyes are kept hydrated all day long, reducing irritability and ensuring a very comfortable wear.
A convenient alternative to glasses - Bored of wearing your varifocals? Dailies AquaComfort Plus Multifocal lenses offer a very convenient alternative. Simply open a pack and pop them in for seamless, uninterrupted vision. Then remove at night and put in a fresh pair the next morning - it couldn’t be simpler.
Dailies AquaComfort Plus Multifocal are daily disposable contact lenses for those with presbyopia. Wearers describe them as ‘very comfortable’, ‘easy to put in’ and as lenses that ‘sit nicely in the eye’.

FAQs
Do Multifocal Contacts Come in Dailies?
Yes, multifocal contacts do come as daily lenses. An example of these would be Dailies AquaComfort Plus Multifocal - which you can purchase from Lenstore.
How Do Dailies Multifocal Contacts Work?
Dailies multifocal contacts work by blending several prescriptions into a single set of lenses. This enables the wearer to clearly view things regardless of whether they are close by or far away.
What is the Difference Between Bifocal and Multifocal Lenses?
The main difference between bifocal and multifocal lenses is that bifocals only contain two prescriptions in one set of lenses, whereas multifocals blend several prescriptions into a single set of lenses and have several different focal points for viewing things up close, far away and intermediate distances.
