Your VisionPresbyopiaPresbyopia is the inevitable loss of the ability to focus on near objects, which means that most people over the age of 45 need reading glasses.
The result is that it is more difficult to read at close range. This normal aging process of the lens can also be combined with myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism. Presbyopia is a refractive error, which results from a disorder rather than from disease.
