What is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia is an age-related vision condition that causes near objects to appear blurry. It typically starts in a person’s 40’s, when the lens of the eye begins to stiffen and lose flexibility. This makes it difficult to focus on nearby objects.

Presbyopia can significantly impact your quality of life. Regular daily activities like reading books, instruction manuals and food labels, scrolling through your phone, threading a needle and other close-up tasks can become daunting.

The good news is, with the help of Sharper Vision Eyecare, this common vision condition can be effectively managed, so you won’t have to compromise on your quality of life.

Presbyopia Treatment Options

  • Eyeglasses

    • Prescription reading glasses
    • Bifocals: for distance and near vision correction
    • Progressive multifocals: see objects at a near, intermediate or far distance
  • Contact lenses

    • Bifocal contact lenses: different sections for reading and distance prescriptions
    • Monovision contact lenses: distance prescription in one eye and reading prescription in the other eye
  • Laser surgery

    Changes the shape of the cornea to correct vision. Some examples include:

    • LASIK
    • LASEK
    • Photorefractive keratectomy

Presbyopia Diagnosis Treatment FAQs

What is presbyopia treatment?

Presbyopia treatment corrects age-related farsightedness to enable you to see close-up objects, such as books and electronic screens more clearly. Treatments include:

  • Eyeglasses
  • Contact lenses
  • Laser surgery
  • Lens implants
Can presbyopia be cured?

Currently, there is no cure. The good news is that our optometrists can recommend a variety of treatment options to help you see your best, from near to far.

How do I know if I have presbyopia?

If you’re over 40 and struggle with any of the following, you may have presbyopia.

  • Holding a book or a screen at arm’s length to see it more clearly
  • Needing larger print or font size to read
  • Blurry vision while reading
  • Difficulty reading in dim light
  • Eye strain and headaches when focusing on near objects

If you have one or more of these signs, schedule an eye exam and ask us about glasses, contact lenses, or other presbyopia treatment options.

Are bifocals right for me?

If it’s hard for you to read and to see things at a distance, bifocals may be your perfect solution. With bifocals, you can get two prescriptions in one. One corrects farsightedness and the other corrects nearsightedness. We offer several different types of bifocal lenses to suit your personal preference.

I recently visited Dr. Moody and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I w... alked in, the staff was welcoming and Kendra was the best and professional. Dr. Moody is incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything in detail during my eye exam. What stood out the most was her personalized approach. She genuinely cared about my comfort and vision needs, and it was clear she wanted the best outcome for me. It’s really a five star ⭐️

The kind of vision care I wish I'd always had. My optometrist discovered a couple of eye problems E... ARLY. That means I get to take some actions to slow the progression and keep better vision longer. That's invaluable. A Sharper Vision optician was the first, ever, to measure pupil distance for glasses with enough precision to see that one eye is 1/2 millimeter farther from center than the other. Because of that, my progressive lenses are aligned better with my eyes and a larger area of what I'm looking at is in focus. I had been wearing glasses for 25 years already, living with the frustration of misaligned lenses. That was about 10 years ago. The opticians keep surprising me with their knowledge about glasses, fitting, and eyewear care. When they tell you to come back if you have any problems with new eyewear, they mean it. I couldn't get used to my new glasses recently so I went back. First an optician thoroughly checked the lenses. They had been made accurately to the prescription. Second, I was given an appointment with my optometrist to review exam results. She slightly tweaked the prescription, and my lenses are being changed to the new prescription. That's awesome client service.
