Glasses used to be the only option for those of us with poor vision. Then came contact lenses. Recently, lasik surgery offered a real advancement - and now multifocal lens implants offer a new kind of hope for many.

Multifocal lenses replacement
This tiny innovation was originally designed for people with cataracts, a common medical condtion related to aging. These tiny lenses have different zones that allow a person to see far away, for things like driving. Another zone allows people to see intermediate distances to do things like cooking. A third zone allows a person to see up close, like when reading.
