Product Introduction
Proclear 1 Day Multifocal contact lenses provide a reliable and moisture-rich experience for patients requiring correction for presbyopia. These daily disposable lenses are specifically engineered to address age-related ocular dryness by utilizing a biomimetic hydration mechanism that maintains a consistent layer of water on the lens surface.
Addressing Presbyopia and Dryness with PC Technology™
CooperVision has integrated advanced hydration science into the Proclear 1 Day Multifocal to ensure comfort that lasts from morning until late evening.
- Biomimetic Hydration: The PC Technology™ incorporates phosphorylcholine molecules—a substance found naturally in human cell membranes—directly into the Omafilcon A material. This allows the lens to tightly bind water molecules, creating a protective shield that resists the dehydration common in multifocal wearers.
- High Water Retention: With a 60% water content, the Omafilcon A hydrogel material remains soft and flexible throughout the day. This high-water environment is particularly beneficial for users who find their eyes becoming increasingly sensitive or dry as the day progresses.
- Deposit Resistance: The non-ionic nature of the lens material helps prevent the accumulation of protein and lipid deposits, ensuring the surface remains clean and clear for the duration of the wearing period.
The Optical Precision of Proclear 1 Day Multifocal
Navigating different focal distances becomes more intuitive with the sophisticated optical architecture of these lenses. Proclear 1 Day Multifocal uses an Aspheric Centre-Near Design, a progressive system that places the near-vision correction at the centre of the lens. This design works in harmony with the eye's natural pupil response, allowing for a seamless transition when shifting focus between a smartphone, a computer screen, and distant objects.
Who Should Wear Proclear 1 Day Multifocal?
Optometrists frequently recommend Proclear 1 Day Multifocal for patients who:
- Require correction for presbyopia alongside standard myopia (short-sightedness) or hyperopia (long-sightedness).
- Experience mild to moderate dry eye symptoms, particularly those exacerbated by age or environmental factors.
- Spend significant time on digital devices and notice a drop in comfort due to reduced blink rates.
- Value the convenience and hygiene of a fresh, sterile lens every single day.
Note: Suitability, fit, and replacement schedules must always be confirmed by your optometrist.

Common Questions About Proclear 1 Day Multifocal
What is the difference between Proclear 1 Day Multifocal and Clariti 1 Day Multifocal?
Proclear 1 Day Multifocal is manufactured from Omafilcon A hydrogel and features PC Technology, making it a targeted clinical option for presbyopic patients primarily concerned with dryness. In contrast, Clariti 1 Day Multifocal is a silicone hydrogel lens (Somofilcon A) which offers a significantly higher oxygen transmissibility of 86 Dk/t, prioritising long-term corneal health and breathability.
Are Proclear 1 Day Multifocal lenses suitable for prolonged screen use?
Yes, these lenses are highly suitable for digital environments. Proclear 1 Day Multifocal holds FDA clearance for providing improved comfort for contact lens wearers who experience mild discomfort or symptoms related to dryness during lens wear. The PC Technology helps the lens maintain its hydration even when blinking frequency decreases during intense screen work.
How often should Proclear 1 Day Multifocal lenses be replaced?
Proclear 1 Day Multifocal must be discarded after a single day of use. Because they are designed with a hydrogel material that has an oxygen transmissibility of 28 Dk/t, they are not approved for overnight or extended wear. A new, sterile pair should be applied each morning to ensure optimal eye health.
