Presbyopia is an age-related condition where the eye's natural lens loses its flexibility, making it difficult to focus on objects up close. This gradual change usually starts in your early to mid-40s and can lead to eye strain, blurred near vision, and headaches when reading or working on close tasks. While it affects nearly everyone as they age, the impact on daily activities can be significantly minimized with timely intervention and proper correction.
You might notice presbyopia through a range of common symptoms, including:
At Cohen Eye Institute, we offer a range of strategies for presbyopia treatment in Manhattan, tailored to meet your lifestyle and vision needs:
The simplest solution involves prescription reading glasses or multifocal lenses, which provide distinct focal points for near and distance vision.
Multifocal or monovision contact lenses offer an alternative to glasses by correcting each eye differently—one for distance and one for near vision.
For those interested in laser vision correction, LASIK monovision adjusts one eye for distance and the other for near tasks. It's a viable option for some, though it requires a period of adaptation.
RLE replaces your natural lens with an intraocular lens designed to correct presbyopia and other refractive errors. This option is particularly effective for people over 40 who want a long-term solution.
A recent innovation is corneal inlays, tiny implants inserted into the cornea to improve near vision without affecting distance vision. They're reversible and can be removed if necessary.
