Presbyopia
What is Presbyopia?
The natural crystalline lens in the eye is quite elastic and can change its shape to focus on objects at various distances, this is known as “accommodation.” As we age, the lens becomes more rigid, and seeing up-close objects clearly becomes difficult. This condition is known as presbyopia and usually due to the normal aging process of the eye.
You may start to notice presbyopia around your mid 40s. Reading materials might have to be held farther away to be seen clearly.
It has been mentioned and been advertised as there is no way to stop or reverse presbyopia. Treatments through acupuncture and herbal medicines will help reverse presbyopia and the person will be able to see up-close objects clearly.
Symptoms
- A tendency to hold reading material farther away to make the letters clearer
- Blurred vision at normal reading distance
- Eyestrain or headaches after reading or doing close-up work
Who is at risk for Presbyopia?
- Age: Age is the greatest risk factor for presbyopia. Almost everyone experiences some degree of presbyopia after age 40.
- Other medical conditions: Being farsighted or having certain diseases — such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis or cardiovascular diseases — can increase your risk of premature presbyopia, which is presbyopia in people younger than 40.
- Drugs: Certain drugs are associated with premature presbyopic symptoms, including antidepressants, antihistamines and diuretics.
