Presbyopia Management
Expert Eye Care by Consultant Ophthalmologist
Presbyopia is a natural age-related change in vision that typically begins in your early to mid-40s, making it difficult to focus on near objects such as reading text, using a phone, or working at a computer. At our specialist eye clinic in Leeds, Mr. Ahmed Bardan provides advanced presbyopia management solutions, helping you regain clarity and reduce your reliance on reading glasses or bifocals.
​
Using a combination of cutting-edge diagnostic tools and customised treatment approaches, we tailor every solution to suit your lifestyle, vision needs and long-term eye health.
What Is Presbyopia?
Presbyopia occurs when the natural lens inside the eye loses flexibility, making it harder to change focus between near and far objects. It is not a disease, but a natural part of ageing.
​
Common symptoms include:
-
Difficulty reading small print
-
Holding objects further away to focus
-
Headaches or eye strain during close work
-
Needing brighter light for near tasks
-
Constantly switching between glasses
