If you have been fit with the Cooper Proclear
multifocal contact lens, then you already know
how great the comfort and vision can be. Have you
stopped to wonder what makes this lens so
great
and why it is considered by many to lead the
market in soft disposable multifocals?
The Cooper ProClear Multifocal contact lens
combines the all day comfort of the entire
proclear line with the versatility and optics of
the frequency 55 multifocal. By the time a
person
needs multifocal lenses; their eyes are generally
drier than they might have been a
few years
earlier, so the merging of the two designs makes
perfect sense.
The proclear multifocal contact lens material was
made specifically for people with dry
eyes. All
proclear lenses are made up of 62% water which
makes a very high water content
lens. The
breakthrough in the material is not necessarily
its water content; rather it is
the ability of
the lens to maintain its water content throughout
the day.
Most high water content lenses dehydrate rapidly
and rely on the eyes tear film to replenish
the
lost water. For someone that already has dry eyes,
this creates a very uncomfortable
contact lens
environment. Contact lens related dry eye can be
very noticeable at the end of
the day or during
extended computer use.
With Cooper’s ProClear material, the lenses have a
high water content which makes them
comfortable
initially and they retain that high water content
in most environments. For a
person wearing the
Cooper ProClear multifocal contact lens, this
means it does not rely on
absorbing as many tears
as other lenses to maintain a moist state. Whether
at the computer,
the theatre, or the beach,
Proclear lenses stay comfortable.
Essentially, ProClear means initial comfort that
lasts throughout the day. All the ProClear
families of lenses are designed to be replaced on
a monthly basis which makes them
convenient and
extremely healthy.
With this amazing material, it was only a matter
of time before Cooper released the ProClear
Mulitfocal. These soft contact lenses have a wide
range of parameters allowing most people
to be
fit with sphere powers between +4.00 and -6.00.
Add powers start at +1.00 and go up to
+2.50. Two
styles are made, a distance lens and a near lens.
When fit properly the Proclear multifocal has the
ability to provide end of day comfort,
quality
distance vision, great computer vision, and add
for near vision.

Clear Readers: Reading Glasses With an Invisible Presence
by: Steve Cogger
When faced with the reality of having to wear reading glasses some people will try anything to avoid them.
There is another option that allows you to wear reading glasses, but keep it low key so others may not even notice you have them on.
Clear plastic reading glasses have an invisible look to them.
For those not happy with the idea of wearing reading glasses this may be their answer.
The idea of plastic frames can turn some people off. In the past plastic frames were quite heavy as compared to metal frames.
However, the technology today has allowed for the creation of lightweight plastics, like zyl or TR-90 memory flex plastic.
TR-90 memory plastic also offers an added benefit of being flexible that makes frames much more durable.
Memory plastics have the ability to form to the wearers face to provide a comfortable,...

Seeing Color: Genetic and Acquired Color Vision Deficiencies
by: Arlene Evans
Jim Doane was humiliated when he passed the ball to a member of the opposing team with the red jerseys instead of to his own team with the green jerseys. His team lost. He said he had a short-lived career in high school as a fry cook because he couldn?t tell when the meat was cooked. He wanted to be a physician, but was told that career was closed to him, so he went into engineering instead. Now retired, Doane enjoys flying, but his license is limited to daylight hours because he can?t tell red from green.
Doane isn?t alone. Among the most common of genetic disorders, color vision deficiency (CVD), or colorblindness (so named although these people are not ?blind? to color), is present in about eight percent of men and O.5 percent of women, frequently those of European descent. However, CVD is present in all races and nationalities, ranging in intensity from mild to...
