Do you find it difficult to read the small print on your cell phone or newspaper? Do you feel like you need more light to focus on close objects? These are some of the most common symptoms of presbyopia, a condition that affects most people over the age of 40.
What is presbyopia?
Presbyopia is a natural aging condition that affects the lens of the eye, making it less flexible and making it difficult to focus on close objects. This results in blurred vision when reading, writing, or performing precision tasks at close range.
How is presbyopia corrected?
There are different options to correct presbyopia, such as:
Multifocal glasses – offer a complete solution for presbyopia and other conditions such as nearsightedness or farsightedness.
Multifocal contact lenses – are a comfortable and flexible alternative to glasses.
Refractive surgery – offers a permanent solution to presbyopia. There are different techniques, such as LASIK or PRK, that may be right for you.
Don’t resign yourself to presbyopia!
There are solutions so you can enjoy clear vision at any distance. Consult your ophthalmologist to indicate the best option for your case.
