PresbyMAX can be suitable for athletes, particularly those wanting freedom from multifocal glasses or contact lenses during sport.
Advantages for active people
Unaided vision across distances helps performance.
- Improved distance and intermediate vision without spectacles
- Less worry about glasses fogging, slipping, or breaking
- Freedom from contact‑lens dryness or loss during intense activity
- Compatibility with helmets, goggles, and headgear
- Convenience in outdoor and water sports
Planning around training
Recovery must fit the athletic schedule.
- Temporary reduction in training intensity while the cornea heals
- Avoidance of dusty, high‑impact, or swimming environments initially
- Use of protective eyewear when returning to sport
- Realistic discussion about night‑time glare in sports played under floodlights
- Scheduling surgery away from key competitions or events
