Are you starting to have trouble focusing up close as you age? Presbyopia affects our eyes' ability to focus easily on nearer tasks. This happens because the lens inside the eye progressively loses some flexibility, which is called Presbyopia.
Presbyopia happens due to a change of the lens inside the eye, as it naturally becomes thicker and stiffens over time. To alter our focus from distance to near, or back again, the shape of the lens within our eye changes. As the lens thickens and loses flexibility with age, its ability to change its shape reduces. It typically starts in our forties but can happen earlier or later for some.
If you're around 40, and noticing changes in your vision, you're probably experiencing Presbyopia. An eye examination with an eye care professional will confirm whether you have Presbyopia. They will perform a series of vision assessments to confirm if the focusing difficulty is due to the onset of Presbyopia. Presbyopia is progressive so regular eye examinations are always recommended.
Our Pupil Optimised Design optimises the optical design to the pupil size according to age and refractive power, to help bring you clear vision near, far, and in between1.
ACUVUE® multifocal contact lenses are moisture-infused to offer comfortable wear throughout the day.**2

TL;DR – Presbyopia: What It Is and How to Manage It
Presbyopia is a common, age-related condition that makes it harder to see things up close—usually becoming noticeable after the age of 40. It happens naturally as the lens in your eye becomes less flexible over time. You might find yourself holding your phone farther away or needing more light to read. The good news is that presbyopia can be corrected with solutions like multifocal contact lenses, which help you see clearly at all distances. If you're noticing these changes, it’s best to speak to an eye care professional about what options are right for you.
