PRESBYOND can be suitable for mild myopia combined with presbyopia when the main problem is increasing dependence on reading glasses.
When it works well
Both distance and near are addressed.
- Small myopic corrections that still justify laser for convenience
- Presbyopia causing regular spectacle use for near and intermediate tasks
- Desire to avoid toggling between “off” and “on” glasses for different distances
- Clear lens and good corneal health
- Willingness to adapt to blended‑vision optics
When simpler solutions may suffice
Mild myopes sometimes prefer non‑surgical options.
- Comfort reading without glasses at close range and using glasses only for distance
- Minimal bother from current spectacle or contact‑lens habit
- High concern about surgical risk versus modest convenience gain
- Preference to wait until presbyopia progresses further
- Use of tailored spectacles or contact lenses as a lower-risk alternative
