Presbyopia

Presbyopia occurs at the age of 40 years and its main symptom is reduced near vision. Difficulty in reading without glasses at 35-40 cm and fatigue after a short period of close work are present. Normally the lens is flexible enough to change its shape when focusing at close objects. Loss of its flexibility and elasticity known as loss of the eye's adjustment mechanism results in presbyopia. In recent years VEIC is a leading Institute in the research for the development of effective and permanent surgical treatment for presbyopia.
