Not a treatment: Monovision is used for those in the presbyopic age (over 40 years). In this process a contact lens is placed in the right eye for distance and the left eye for near. Most adapt to this and it allows vision at near and far without the need for bifocals.
Created for people with ongoing healthcare needs but benefits everyone.
