There are two kinds of contact lenses that correct presbyopia. If you wear contact lenses, you can also use reading glasses with your regular distance vision contacts.
Monovision contact lenses. These correct one eye for close vision and one eye for far vision. This means one contact lens helps you read and see things that are near. The other contact lens helps you see things that are at a distance.
Multifocal contact lenses. These have several zones or rings at different powers. Some switch between near and far vision. Others slowly change from near to far vision. You don't notice a change from one power to the next. Talk with your eye doctor about which kind of multifocal lens is best for you.
