Is PRESBYOND surgery suitable over 40?

< 1 min read

Yes. From the early to mid‑40s, PRESBYOND may be considered for suitable presbyopes who are beginning to notice near‑vision decline.

When it works well in early presbyopes

Symptoms should be meaningful.

  • Regular use of reading spectacles for phones, books, or screens
  • Stable distance prescription and healthy corneas
  • Clear crystalline lenses without cataract
  • Good binocular function and willingness to adapt to blended vision
  • Motivation to reduce dependence on near correction

Points to discuss at this age

Balancing current and future needs.

  • How presbyopia is likely to progress over coming years
  • Possibility of needing minor adjustments or glasses for very fine tasks
  • Future cataract surgery potentially altering the blended‑vision balance
  • Alternative strategies such as monovision with standard laser or contacts
  • Ensuring benefits justify permanent corneal reshaping
