Adults experiencing blurry vision when reading up close or looking at distant objects have another vision correction option to explore at St. Luke’s Medical Center – Global City. Through LASIK with PRESBYOND®, the hospital’s Vision Laser Center offers advanced laser vision correction designed to improve visual clarity at different distances, providing an alternative for eligible patients who want to rely less on eyeglasses. The procedure addresses presbyopia, an age-related condition that makes it harder for the eyes to focus on nearby objects. Using advanced laser technology and specialized refractive care, the treatment aims to help suitable patients enjoy greater visual convenience in their everyday activities.
Understanding PRESBYOND for Age-Related Vision Changes
Presbyopia commonly develops with age as the eye's natural lens becomes less flexible, making close-up tasks such as reading more difficult. People experiencing this change may find themselves reaching for reading glasses more frequently or adjusting the distance at which they hold books and screens. LASIK with PRESBYOND is a laser vision correction approach designed to improve functional vision across near, intermediate, and far distances for appropriately selected patients. However, results vary, and not everyone is a suitable candidate. A comprehensive eye examination and consultation with an ophthalmologist are important steps in determining whether the procedure is appropriate.

For individuals considering PRESBYOND, consultation provides an opportunity to discuss their vision needs, eye health, expected outcomes, and potential risks.
