For multifocal wearers — 6 min read — Updated May 2024

If your contact lenses aren't giving you the clear, comfortable vision you need at every distance, you are far from alone. The new Bausch + Lomb ULTRA One Day Multifocal addresses the real demands of presbyopic eyes.

A New Choice for Presbyopia

In Australia, 4 in 10 multifocal contact lens wearers are dissatisfied with their current presbyopia correction. The ULTRA One Day Multifocal is the latest addition to Bausch + Lomb's silicone hydrogel daily disposable range, introduced to the Australian market in 2024.

Important

Contact lenses should only be ordered online if they have been prescribed by your optometrist and you have worn them before. If you are considering a new lens brand or type, consult your optometrist first and request a trial pair before purchasing. Wearing a lens that has not been professionally fitted to your eyes can cause discomfort and serious complications.

The ULTRA One Day Range: Built Progressively

The ULTRA One Day Multifocal extends the proven comfort platform of the spherical version introduced in 2021. It combines foundational moisture technologies with a design developed specifically for the complex visual needs of the ageing eye.

3-Zone Progressive™ Design: Clarity at Every Distance

Unlike conventional multifocal lenses that blend power gradually, this lens delivers consistent add power within three distinct zones: near, intermediate, and far.

Consistent Add Power

Ensures seamless transitions between near, mid, and far distances without fluctuating clarity.

3-Zone Design

Biomatrix Modelling

Optics designed to match natural eye function across a diverse range of patients.

Eye Modelling

Advanced MoistureSeal® & ComfortFeel Technologies

As we age, tear production naturally decreases. These two technologies work together to support the ageing tear film².

Moisture Retention

Retains 96% of its moisture for up to 16 hours of wear, reducing end-of-day dryness.

MoistureSeal®

Surface Health

Actively releases osmoprotectants, electrolytes, and moisturisers into the tear film.

ComfortFeel

What to Expect at Your Fitting Appointment

Fitting a multifocal contact lens is more involved than a standard spherical fitting. Your optometrist will assess your dominant eye, determine the correct add power, and evaluate the physical fit of the lens on your cornea.

Most patients experience a short adaptation period as the visual system adjusts to simultaneous multifocal optics. This is entirely normal and typically resolves within the first week of wear.
