Have you reached presbyopia (noticeable in early to mid 40’s) and discovered that a single strength lens isn't cutting it anymore? If this is the case, progressive lenses may be required. As you become older, you'll probably need this lens more. Presbyopia is a syndrome that causes people to have difficulties focusing on surrounding objects as they get older.

Progressive lenses have prescriptions for distance, intermediate and near vision. This implies you'll be able to see objects up close, things that aren't too far away, and things that are far away.

Multifocal lenses are another name for progressive lenses. They're a step up from bifocal and trifocal lenses.

Progressive lenses do not have a line, hence they are known as no-line multifocal lenses. They feature a seamless appearance and are practical.

Progressive in contact lenses are called Multifocal lenses. Multifocal contact lenses are no different from Progressive lenses on eyeglasses. It's only that they're in the shape of contact lenses. These lenses are intended for persons who have active lives and prefer to wear contact lenses.
