Presbyopia correction can now be as simple as a drop.💧

Do you struggle to read things up close?
Presbyopia is a natural, age-related change in vision. It happens when the eye’s lens gradually loses flexibility, making it harder to focus on nearby objects.

The good news is that presbyopia is treatable. In addition to reading glasses, new prescription eye drops can help improve near vision.

We now offer two prescription eye drops for presbyopia:

☑️Vizz – A prescription eye drop that helps improve near vision affected by presbyopia.

☑️Qlosi – The first FDA-approved eyedrop for blurry near vision, powered by the advanced EyeQ™ formulation.

Schedule your appointment to see if these treatments are right for you.
