What is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia is an age-related vision condition that causes near objects to appear blurry. It typically starts in a person’s 40’s, when the lens of the eye begins to stiffen and lose flexibility. This makes it difficult to focus on nearby objects.

Presbyopia can significantly impact your quality of life. Regular daily activities like reading books, instruction manuals and food labels, scrolling through your phone, threading a needle and other close-up tasks can become daunting.

The good news is, with the help of Memorial Eye Center - Barker Cypress, this common vision condition can be effectively managed, so you won’t have to compromise on your quality of life.

Great and affordable place to get your eye exams!

When I had to find a new Optometrist, I chose Dr. Meeks and I am so fortunate that I chose her. Dr. ... Meeks is very knowledgeable. I have Multiple Sclerosis and Dr. Meeks spent time checking the inside and back parts of my eyes, such as my corneas and retinas. I feel so confident and well taken care of with Dr. Meeks. Dr. Meeks is very personable and kind. I would recommend Dr. Meeks to everyone I know.

I came to this location solely for an eye exam with Dr. Mimi Duong as she is the best! She's attenti... ve, personable, and incredibly efficient at her job. She didn't make me feel like she was rushing through my exam as most optometrists do in my prior experience. Also, Brittany who worked me up with my preliminary exams is awesome! She's easy to talk to and also great at her job. I will absolutely be back for these two professionals! I technically don't need glasses because I have 20/20 vision, but I'll gladly get another eye exam with Dr. Mimi anytime.

Dr. S was super nice, patient, and thorough in her exam. Made it easy for my nervous 7 year old to ... be brave. The girls that helped with picking out glasses and then getting them adjusted were so nice about everything and quick. Made the whole process easy.

Thank you so much for seeing me immediately and discovering my eye issues. I’m grateful they refer... red me to a Retinologist and I underwent immediate emergency surgery. They saved my eyesight! I will be returning after I’ve healed to get my glasses and contacts refilled! Thanks again to Dr. Mimi Doung… I’m forever grateful…

Dr. Mimi and her team were all efficient in handling me during my first eye check up. Everything was... explained thoroughly and everything was high tech! The place was clean and from the moment you got there, the procedure was sytematic. Everyone knew when it's their turn to have you taken into a particular room for eye exam. Thank you , Dr.Mimi and the rest of the staff. I feel like I still have 20/20 vision to see how professional and committed you all are!

Presbyopia Diagnosis Treatment FAQs

What is presbyopia treatment?

Presbyopia treatment corrects age-related farsightedness to enable you to see close-up objects, such as books and electronic screens more clearly. Treatments include:

  • Eyeglasses
  • Contact lenses
  • Laser surgery
  • Lens implants
Can presbyopia be cured?

Currently, there is no cure. The good news is that our optometrists can recommend a variety of treatment options to help you see your best, from near to far.

How do I know if I have presbyopia?

If you’re over 40 and struggle with any of the following, you may have presbyopia.

  • Holding a book or a screen at arm’s length to see it more clearly
  • Needing larger print or font size to read
  • Blurry vision while reading
  • Difficulty reading in dim light
  • Eye strain and headaches when focusing on near objects

If you have one or more of these signs, schedule an eye exam and ask us about glasses, contact lenses, or other presbyopia treatment options.

Are bifocals right for me?

If it’s hard for you to read and to see things at a distance, bifocals may be your perfect solution. With bifocals, you can get two prescriptions in one. One corrects farsightedness and the other corrects nearsightedness. We offer several different types of bifocal lenses to suit your personal preference.
