In a young eye, the flexible lens inside your eye, is able to shift focus between close objects and objects at a distance. However, as you age, this lens thickens and begins to harden\u2014 losing its flexibility and affecting your near vision.

However, there are treatments that can help alleviate the discomfort you are experiencing.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Eyeglasses\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Reading glasses<\/b> contain lenses that act in place of your natural lens to provide clear and sharp near vision. These lenses also have a magnification effect to enlarge what you are looking at. Reading glasses are only worn as needed, and can be worn simultaneously with contact lenses meant for distance vision.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/optical\/guide-to-bifocals-and-multifocals\/\">Bifocal glasses<\/a> <\/b>have two lens prescriptions\u2014 the bottom section for near vision, the top section for distance<b>,<\/b> and a bisecting line on the lens. The downside of bifocals is that they only provide two lens powers for clear vision\u2014near and distance.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/optical\/guide-to-bifocals-and-multifocals\/\">Multifocal glasses<\/a> <\/b>with progressive addition lenses (PALs) are similar to bifocals, but contain multiple lens powers to provide vision at all distances\u2014 distance, reading, and the intermediate area. Multifocal lenses gradually blend the lens powers together without a bisecting line, making them more attractive than bifocals. The downside of multifocals is that the width of the clear zone for each part of the lens may appear to be narrowed. <b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Contact lenses<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses<\/b> are available in both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/optical\/guide-to-contact-lenses\/guide-to-soft-contacts-lenses\/\">soft<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/optical\/guide-to-contact-lenses\/guide-to-hard-contact-lenses\/\">hard<\/a> varieties. Many people prefer contact lenses over glasses because they eliminate the need to wear eyeglasses and allow for a full field of vision.<\/p>\n<p><b>Monovision<\/b> is another contact lens option in which the dominant eye wears the lens for distance vision, while the less dominant eye wears the lens for near vision.\u00a0 This method can cause reduced visual acuity and some loss of depth perception.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Surgery<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Surgery is usually not recommended for correction of presbyopia alone, as surgery carries the risk of complications that can permanently affect your vision.\u00a0 For those who prefer not to wear eyeglasses or contact lenses, there are several surgical options to treat presbyopia, some of which can be combined with other common eye surgeries;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/eye-conditions\/guide-to-cataracts\/will-cataract-surgery-give-me-20-20-vision\/\"><b>Cataract surgery<\/b><\/a> is the most common eye surgery performed. When replacing your cloudy lens with a new intraocular lens (IOL), the surgeon will usually choose powers that correct your vision. The intention is to give you clear vision for all distances without needing eyeglasses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/optical\/laser-refractive-surgery\/\"><b>LASIK eye surgery<\/b><\/a> follows the monovision method (discussed above) by correcting the distance vision of the dominant eye and giving the non-dominant eye clear focus for all near vision.<\/p>\n<p><b>Corneal inlay<\/b> involves a procedure where a tiny lens is implanted into the cornea of the non dominant eye to increase depth of focus in that eye. It reduces the need for reading glasses, while preserving the quality of distance vision.<\/p>\n<p><b>Refractive lens exchange (RLE)<\/b> is a surgical procedure that is performed before your cataracts develop, and involves replacing the old, hardened natural lenses with new intraocular lenses (IOL).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Presbyopia is a normal part of growing older and usually occurs gradually over many years, without causing any pain or significant discomfort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LEARN MORE:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/optical\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/optical\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1627633000784000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEOoHawDvhEPXUEX9jm7Ng8rqvhog\">Optical and Contact Lenses<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>If you are beginning to notice changes to your near vision, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/practice-search\/\">make an appointment with an doctor<\/a> to discuss the best treatment option for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is presbyopia?
