Evaluation of the Functional Visual Range of a Catenary Curve-Based, Extended Depth-of-Focus Contact Lens for Presbyopia.

Purpose: Employing "relative plus" (Add) power to extend the functional vision range is a primary method to correct presbyopia with contact lenses. Simultaneous vision contact lenses are typically associated with visual disturbances at higher Add powers, often resulting in compromised vision and necessitating specialized fitting methods. Among mature individuals suffering from presbyopia, we evaluated the visual performance of a catenary curve-based extended depth of focus (EDOF) optical profile contact lens with a simplified fitting process.
