Presbyopia

Presbyopia occurs when the eye is no longer able to adjust its focusing distance. A healthy natural lens is flexible so that it thickens when we need to focus close-up. With presbyopia, this lens becomes less flexible, which makes it difficult to focus on things like fine print. People most commonly begin to experience presbyopia around age 40.

Symptoms of Presbyopia may include:

• Difficulty reading fine print
• eyestrain when reading for long periods
• Momentary blurred vision when transitioning between viewing distances
