Presbyopia or Tired View

1.WHAT IS THE PRESBYOPIA OR TIRED VIEW?

The presbyopia is the consequence of a progressive loss of the capacity that has the eye to focus nearby objects (accommodation), said loss is produced because the lens that have inside the crystalline called eye ages with the age and goes losing happiness capacity.

The eye is adapted for distant vision and when wants to see objects closely, the crystalline one itself curve accommodating the vision and perceiving with clarity said objects.

The presbyopia is a natural evolution and not an illness.

2. WHEN DO WE SUSPECT THE EXISTENCE OF THE PRESBYOPIA?

We suspect of the existence of presbyopia if from 35-40 years (although can be something before or later), is necessary to move away the tasks closely (reading, dressmaking, …) beyond what we considered custom.

This removal we produce it generally stretching the arms. Also causes suspects the presence of presbyopia the need to approach the reading or the dressmaking to a source of light, with the same effect of clarity that with the removal.

3. SYMPTOMS OF THE PRESBYOPIA

  • Exhaustion when we carry a good while carrying out tasks closely (reading, sewing, …).
  • Certain difficulty to focus from a distance when we carry a while setting in nearby objects
  • Headaches, drowsiness…

When it is noted the first symptoms specialist should respond so that put him the best remedy. 

4. THE PRESBYOPIA WITH LASER CAN BE ELIMINATED?

Intrastromal lens (ACUFOCUS, ...): With Femtosecond Laser Corneal prepares for implantation in the thickness of a lens to compensate for eyestrain. Technical painless, quick, safe and reversible, since the lens could be removed without making the corneal suture to its original state.

At present investigates on the processing of the cornea by means of Laser Excimer and on the utilization of LIO, providing vision to all the distances. These lenses are installed in previous or subsequent camera of the eye without extracting the crystalline one, they provide a continuous focus from a distance and close.

The presbypia can be eliminated with laser by means of Vision Combined or Monovisión, that is to say, leaving the dominant eye for VL and the eye dominated for VP. With this we achieve that be an almost independent person of the eyeglasses, being able to come to use them only occasionally (times prolonged of reading….). 

At present can also be corrected by means of Presbilasik, pioneering technique in the processing of presbyopia with laser and adapted to the characteristic refractives of the tired view.

In case of cataracts, with lenses multifocus type Restor (R), Rezoom (R),…we can to obtain vision far away-close, according to the needs of each patient. The adequate selection will be the key for the satisfaction in the correction multifocal.
