Presbyopia (prez-bee-oh-pee-uh). Funny word isn’t it? Have you ever heard of it? The majority of people haven’t, yet it affects everyone eventually. Presbyopia or “short arm syndrome” as you might call it, is seen first around age 40. It makes reading the newspaper, tiny print on prescription bottles or even your text messages difficult. The good news is that with modern technology we have many solutions and treatment options available. Today’s new, totally customizable lenses offer clearer vision than ever before, with none of the side effects of yesterday’s no-line bifocals. Whether it is through high-definition glasses or multifocal contact lenses, there really is a perfect solution for everyone and every need.
