In some cases, this can be vision changes, where you may have a hard time seeing things from afar or nearby. One of these conditions that develops with age is presbyopia.<\/p><p>Presbyopia occurs when the eye loses its ability to focus on nearby objects. The natural lens in our eye becomes less flexible as we age, which makes it harder to adjust and focus. This eye condition typically begins at around 40 years old, so if you&#8217;ve found yourself holding a book or your smartphone further away to read it, presbyopia might be the cause.\u00a0<\/p><p>A few of the ways to ensure your safety while living with presbyopia and slow down its progression are by consulting an eye doctor and learning more about the condition through your own research. When researching presbyopia, it\u2019s essential that you learn how to discern which pieces of information are myths or facts.\u00a0<\/p><h2><strong>Busting the Myths of Presbyopia<\/strong><\/h2><p>Understanding presbyopia is crucial, especially when there&#8217;s a deluge of misinformation. Let&#8217;s debunk some of these myths together.<\/p><h3><strong>Myth 1: Farsightedness and Presbyopia Are the Same<\/strong><\/h3><p>Though they seem similar, farsightedness (hyperopia) and presbyopia are distinct. Farsightedness is a refractive error caused by the eye&#8217;s shape, where distant objects can be seen more clearly than nearby ones. A person with hyperopia has a shorter than normal eyeball, which is the cause of the condition. On the other hand, presbyopia is a result of the eye lens losing flexibility from the natural ageing process. However, it&#8217;s possible to have both conditions simultaneously.<\/p><h3><strong>Myth 2: LASIK Can Cure Presbyopia<\/strong><\/h3><p>While many ask about LASIK for presbyopia, hoping for a quick fix, the procedure primarily corrects refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia, or astigmatism. Furthermore, it is an ineffective and unsatisfying solution for the correction of presbyopia. More often than not, <a href=\"https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/zh\/presbyopia-correction\/\">presbyopia treatment<\/a> involves bifocal or progressive spectacles or presbyopia-correcting lens implants. However, when the presbyopia case is severe, and <a href=\"https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/zh\/cataract-surgery\/\">\u767d\u5185\u969c<\/a> start to develop as well, there are instances where the eye specialist will recommend surgery.<\/p><h3><strong>Myth 3: Wearing Glasses Will Make Your Vision Worse<\/strong><\/h3><p>This long-standing myth has caused many to resist wearing glasses out of fear they&#8217;ll become dependent on them or that their eyes will weaken. But as a matter of fact, glasses for presbyopia correction simply help your eyes focus better. These glasses are tailor-made to assist the eye in focusing on objects, particularly those up close. They don&#8217;t weaken the eyes or exacerbate the condition. If you feel your vision is deteriorating, it might be time for a presbyopia eye test to adjust your prescription.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6204c72 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6204c72\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1196\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wearing-glasses-will-make-your-vision-worse.jpg 1999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2cb2a04 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2cb2a04\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><strong>\u00a0Myth 4: Only Old People Get Presbyopia<\/strong><\/h3><p>While age is a significant factor, presbyopia can start as early as your early 40s. Genetics can also influence when one starts to experience presbyopia. If your parents or grandparents needed reading glasses at an earlier age, there&#8217;s a chance you might too. Additionally, certain health conditions, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/eyewisevision.com.sg\/zh\/diabetic-eye-screening\/\">\u7cd6\u5c3f\u75c5<\/a> and cardiovascular diseases, and even environmental factors can expedite the onset of presbyopia. As such, it\u2019s important to undergo eye screenings to detect early signs of presbyopia or other eye diseases.<\/p><h2><strong>How EyeWise Vision Can Help Patients with Presbyopia<\/strong><\/h2><p>EyeWise Vision understands the challenges that individuals face when dealing with presbyopia.
