Presbyopia


Presbyopia is a normal part of aging wherein your eyes gradually lose the ability to see things clearly up close. The term “presbyopia” comes from a Greek word that means “old eye.” Most people begin to notice the effect of presbyopia sometime after the age of 40 as the lenses of the eyes naturally lose their elasticity due to the aging process.

Presbyopia can be classified according to types incipient presbyopia, functional presbyopia, absolute presbyopia, premature presbyopia, and nocturnal presbyopia. It is mostly due to age-related changes in the proteins within the lens of the eye that cause it to become thicker, harder, and less flexible.
