Binocular Progressive System Boosts clariti

The new lens is designed to provide better vision¹ and high levels of comfort^2,3 for presbyopic patients, along with an easy and successful fitting experience⁴ for optometrists.

Nearly two billion people worldwide now experience presbyopia,⁵ yet multifocal contact lenses remain significantly underutilised, representing a major missed opportunity for both patients and eye care professionals.⁶

The clariti 1day multifocal offers the widest range of prescription options across spherical, toric, and multifocal lenses^†7 and is supported by proven Binocular Progressive System technology used in MyDay multifocal,⁸ CooperVision said.

Michelle North, General Manager CooperVision Australia and New Zealand, said by applying the advanced lens design introduced in the MyDay multifocal,⁸ CooperVision was “giving optometrists in Australia and New Zealand an excellent product to address the growing needs of presbyopic patients”.

The clariti 1 day multifocal with CooperVision Binocular Progressive System maintains the features optometrists and wearers value about the lens,^9-11 while providing improved visual acuity at all distances.¹

Key enhancements include CooperVision Binocular Progressive System making it easier for practitioners to fit patients with the right lens from the start10 with the widest power range of any one-day multifocal;¹² optimised Comfort Edge for good comfort,¹³ and WetLoc Technology to maintain lens hydration throughout the day.¹⁴

Historically, multifocal contact lenses have been perceived as complex and time-consuming to fit – limiting adoption despite strong patient demand.¹⁵ CooperVision’s Binocular Progressive System1 directly addresses these barriers, delivering a streamlined, evidence-backed fitting approach that has achieved fitting success in 98% of patients with two pairs of lenses or fewer.¹⁶

Joe Tanner, Head of Professional Affairs, CooperVision ANZ said, “Presbyopic patients often present with a variety of visual needs, and the clariti 1 day multifocal allows practitioners to deliver better vision1 and comfort2,3 using an efficient fitting approach”.⁴

The full family of clariti 1 day lenses – sphere, toric, and multifocal – offers all-day comfort14 and features easy handling17 and high oxygen transmissibility,^‡18-20 allowing for 100% corneal oxygen consumption to help maintain ocular health during daily wear.
