Presbyopia

Presbyopia occurs in all adults approximately 45 years or older. Presbyopia is a natural aging process of the lens inside the eye. This means that distance vision will be unchanged, but near vision will become blurry.

People who are mildly short-sighted will be unaffected by the symptoms of presbyopia, but people who have no prescription, or who are long-sighted or strongly short-sighted, will suffer from the symptoms of presbyopia.

Presbyopia is able to be treated by using an optical correction technique called Monovision.
