The 40-55 age range is often ideal for PresbyMAX, provided eyes are otherwise healthy and prescriptions are stable.
Why this age band works well
Presbyopia is established but lenses are usually clear.
- Near‑vision difficulties are noticeable enough to justify treatment
- Most patients still have minimal or no cataract
- Cataract surgery is unlikely to be needed in the immediate future
- Corneas generally remain suitable for laser when screened properly
- Long period of potential benefit before lens‑related changes dominate
Checks still required
Age alone is not enough.
- Full assessment of corneal thickness and topography
- Evaluation of lens clarity and retinal health
- Confirmation of prescription stability
- Discussion of work, lifestyle, and visual priorities
- Comparison with alternative presbyopia solutions where appropriate
