acuity should be acceptable. If not, the patient should be retted

with a more appropriate lens.

B. Hygiene and Lens Handling Instructions

Good hygiene and proper lens handling are important factors in

achieving safe, comfortable lens wear. Instruct each patient about

proper hygiene and handling of the lenses. Patients who are unable

to place and remove lenses should not be provided with them. See

Lens Handling Hints below.

C. Recommended Wearing and Replacement Schedule

Prescribe and explain the recommended daily wear schedule. Also

explain that the lenses are to be discarded after each wearing

period. Determine the maximum suggested daily wearing period

based upon the patient’s physiological eye condition. There may

be a tendency for the patient to over wear their lenses initially.

Therefore, the importance of adhering to a proper initial daily

wearing schedule should be stressed to these patients. It may

be advisable for patients who have never worn contact lenses

previously to be given a wearing schedule that allows for a gradual

increase in wearing time.

D. Specic Instructions for Presbyopic Patients

Specic instructions, explanations and demonstrations are

lenses. The following information and instructions have proven

contact lenses.

1. A contact lens that contains different powers for distance and

near involves greater technological and optical complexity than

does a bifocal or multifocal spectacle lens. This is because the

contact lens moves with the eye, rather than having the eye move

up and down while the lens remains suspended in a frame. While

the contact lens therefore gives an unobstructed eld of view and

greater freedom regarding where to look, these advantages may

mean that the sharpness of vision may not always be exactly the

same as what would be experienced with spectacles.

Multifocal contact lenses for full-

time wear, it is not unusual to nd that there may be some activities

where one prefers to wear spectacles, or where the disadvantages

associated with spectacles are outweighed by other issues. This is

an entirely normal and natural response to the challenges presented

by presbyopia.

3. Situations where vision with multifocal contact lenses may be

less sharp or otherwise “different” than what is experienced with

spectacles often involve low illumination (e.g., a semi-dark room),
