Progressive lenses provide a more natural correction of presbyopia (the inability to focus on near objects) than bifocal or multifocal prescription glasses. With progressive lenses you can see clearly both near and far without needing to carry reading glasses

What are progressive contact lenses?
Progressive or multifocal contact lenses allow you to see clearly both near and far meaning that reading glasses, which are often inconvenient and easily misplaced, are no longer required. These lenses allow you the convenience of being able to see across a room, in to the distance, as well as being able to view your computer or to read a book comfortably.
What types of correction are available with progressive contact lenses?
Progressive contact lenses are used to correct presbyopia, an age-related condition that affects almost everyone. As you reach your 40s or 50s, the lens inside your own eye becomes less flexible making it harder to focus on objects close to you, such as when reading a book, using a mobile, or when working at a computer
How do progressive or multi-focal lenses work?
Progressive or multifocal lenses are designed to provide the powers for both the distance and reading vision so allowing you to see at different distances through the same lens.
What progressive lenses does ACUVUE® offer?
ACUVUE® BIFOCAL Contact Lenses are able to provide correction for presbyopia and allow you to enjoy the freedom of seeing clearly both near and far without needing varifocal or bifocal spectacles or the inconvenience of needing to carry additional reading glasses.
How do I know which lens is right for me?
A recommendation by your eye care professional might include contact lenses which can correct your distance and near vision. Ask them to discuss the options that are right for you and whether trialing an ACUVUE® contact lens designed for presbyopia is appropriate.
