Presbyopia
Presbyopia is a natural aging process due to the hardening of the crystalline lens. The ability to focus on near objects becomes progressively difficult. Patient’s will more than likely complain of their arms being too short, blurred vision when reading books especially in dim lighting and looking at their cellphones. Presbyopia can be treated with spectacles, contact lenses and refractive surgery.
