Are you finding it harder to focus on both near and distant objects as you get older?
You may notice that reading small print, using your phone, or switching focus between distances is becoming more difficult. This can affect daily tasks such as reading, driving, and working on a screen. You might rely on reading glasses or varifocals, which can feel inconvenient and limiting.

Presbyond Laser Eye Surgery is a type of Laser Eye Surgery designed to improve vision at multiple distances, particularly for people with age related vision changes.
The treatment uses laser technology to reshape the surface of the eye. It creates a blend of vision zones so that one eye is adjusted slightly for near vision and the other for distance. Your brain then adapts to use both eyes together for a full range of focus.
The procedure is carried out using advanced laser systems and is usually completed within a short time. It is suitable for many people over the age of 40 who are experiencing difficulty with near vision, though suitability depends on a detailed assessment. Your care is led by an experienced consultant who will confirm if this treatment is right for you.
