Better vision for aging eyes: new lenses tackle two problems at once

NCT ID NCT06461455

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested new multifocal contact lenses designed for people with both presbyopia (age-related blurry near vision) and astigmatism (blurry vision due to an irregularly shaped cornea). 95 habitual contact lens wearers wore the lenses for 30 days, and researchers measured how clearly they could see at a distance. The goal was to see if the new lenses perform well in everyday use.

Active substance

Lehfilcon A multifocal for astigmatism contact lenses

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new comfortable contact lens option for people who need both multifocal and astigmatism correction.

What could go wrong

This is a small completed study comparing two lens types, so results may not apply to all users. Individual comfort and vision can vary.
