Presbyond Laser Eye Surgery: The Revolutionary Solution for Age-Related Vision Problems in 2025

As we age, our eyes naturally lose their ability to focus on near objects—a condition known as presbyopia.

If you're over 40 and finding yourself holding your phone at arm's length to read text messages, you're experiencing this common age-related change.

Fortunately, modern laser eye surgery offers an innovative solution: Presbyond.

What is Presbyond?

Presbyond is an advanced laser eye surgery technique that uses the Zeiss VisuMax 800 femtosecond laser system to create a corneal flap and the Zeiss MEL 90 Excimer Laser to reshape the corneal surface.

Unlike traditional monovision treatments that correct one eye for distance and the other for near vision, Presbyond creates a unique "blended vision" approach.

This sophisticated procedure reshapes your cornea to provide multiple focal points, allowing both eyes to contribute to vision at all distances.

The treatment works by creating a smooth transition zone on the cornea, enabling your brain to naturally select the clearest image for whatever you're looking at—whether it's driving, reading a book, or using your computer.

Key Benefits of Presbyond

Freedom from reading glasses:  Most patients can reduce or eliminate their dependence on reading glasses and bifocals after Presbyond treatment.

Enhanced quality of life:  Imagine effortlessly transitioning from reading restaurant menus to checking your watch without fumbling for glasses.

Quick recovery:  The minimally invasive procedure typically takes just 10 minutes per eye, with most patients returning to normal activities within 24 hours.

Long-lasting results:  Presbyond provides durable vision correction that can last for many years.

Superior visual quality:  Unlike traditional monovision, both eyes work together harmoniously, maintaining depth perception and contrast sensitivity.

Who is Suitable for Presbyond?

Ideal candidates for Presbyond are typically:

• Over 45 years old experiencing presbyopia
• Have stable vision prescription for at least 12 months
• Possess healthy corneas with adequate thickness
• Lead active lifestyles wanting freedom from glasses
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Presbyond - Key Points

• Treats both short sightedness and long sightedness in the one surgery.
• It is a LASIK procedure; however, it treats refractive errors differently.  Presbyond creates an extended depth of focus - one eye favours distance, the other near, with an optimised blend zone for intermediate vision.
• It has the same downtime as LASIK, 1 day no driving, back to work after a day in a clean environment), 2 weeks for a dusty environment.
• Typically aimed at patients above 40 years.
• Doesn’t stop the natural aging of the eye & cataract surgery may be needed at some point to enhance vision.
