Revision Optics new lens design may help people with presbyopia

Posted by Jim Marino on October 14, 2009

Revision Optics is close to entering an FDA study on a new lens design, the PresbyLens®, which is a small plastic lens that is implanted into the cornea to improve near vision. This could prove beneficial for millions of people suffering from aging of the eyes, or presbyopia. In a study conducted in Mexico, most patients were able to see 20/20 at distance and do near tasks including reading without the need for reading glasses. The FDA is yet to give approval for the start of this study.
