Vision after PresbyMAX generally stabilises over several weeks, with additional neuroadaptation continuing for months. Stability includes both sharpness and how natural the blended vision feels.
Early Stabilisation
Most patients notice a clear improvement within days.
- Distance vision often reaches a functional level quite quickly.
- Near and intermediate tasks may fluctuate at first, especially in dim light.
- Dry eye symptoms can contribute to variable clarity and improve with treatment.
- Early follow‑ups confirm that refraction is close to target in each eye.
Longer-Term Settling
Fine‑tuning of visual balance takes longer.
- Many people feel reasonably stable by around 1-3 months, with further subtle adaptation up to 6 months.
- Reading comfort and depth perception usually improve as the brain integrates the new vision.
- Persistent blur, imbalance, or visual disturbances should prompt reassessment.
- Annual eye checks remain important to monitor long‑term eye health and results.
