Presbyopia is the age-related loss of accommodation that is commonly seen in people over 40 years old. Presbyopia occurs because the lens loses its elasticity and the ability to focus on near objects. What are the options for treating presbyopia?

Spectacles with bifocal or progressive lenses represent the most common method employed to correct presbyopia.
