Refractive Surgery (Presbyopia)

Refractive surgery for Presbyopia aims to improve near and distance vision by adding an implantable collamer lens (ICL) into the eye or replacing the eye crystalline lens with intraocular lens (IOL). Since presbyopia is caused by the natural stiffening of the eye’s lens with age, these surgical interventions are designed to restore focusing ability. While refractive surgery can offer significant vision improvement, thorough pre-operative evaluations are necessary to assess candidacy and discuss potential risks and benefits with an ophthalmologist.
