Clear Near Vision Without Readers

If you’ve started holding menus farther away or reaching for reading glasses more often, you are not alone. Presbyopia is a natural, age-related change in vision that affects nearly everyone after age 40.

Prescription eye drops can offer a non-surgical option to help improve near vision and reduce reliance on reading glasses.

What Is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia occurs as the eye’s natural lens gradually becomes less flexible over time. This makes it more difficult to focus on close-up tasks such as:

  • Reading small print
  • Working on a computer
  • Texting
  • Seeing fine details up close

It is not a disease. It is a normal part of aging. However, you do not have to rely only on reading glasses to manage it.

How Prescription Eye Drops Work

Prescription eye drops for presbyopia are designed to temporarily improve near vision in adults with age-related focusing changes.

These drops work by gently constricting the pupil, which increases depth of focus and helps you see up close more clearly. Many patients notice improvement within a short period after application, with effects lasting for several hours.

There is no surgery and no permanent change to your eyes. For many patients, this can be a convenient, once-daily option prescribed by an eye doctor.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Are over 40 and noticing difficulty with near tasks
  • Want more freedom from reading glasses
  • Prefer a non-surgical solution
  • Have otherwise healthy eyes


During your comprehensive eye exam, we will determine whether prescription eye drops for near vision are appropriate for your eyes and lifestyle.

What to Expect

  • Applied once daily as directed by your doctor
  • Improvement in near vision for several hours
  • Possible mild and temporary side effects such as eye redness or headache in some patients

As with any prescription medication, an eye exam is required to ensure safety and effectiveness.
