Presbyopia correction with the VIS Opti-K system
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests a new treatment called the VIS Opti-K™ System to help people with presbyopia (age-related trouble seeing up close) see better without glasses. It uses a special lens to improve near vision in one eye while keeping distance vision clear.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 40 years old or older.
- Your vision prescription has been stable for at least one year, and you need reading glasses of +1.00 to +2.50.
- You have good distance vision (20/25 or better) without glasses in both eyes.
- Your near vision without glasses in the non-dominant eye is between 20/50 and 20/100.
- You have not had any eye surgery before, and you are not currently using eye drops to treat presbyopia.

This study tests a new device called Opti-K that helps people see better up close without needing reading glasses. It may be an option if you are over 40, have had cataract surgery or no significant cataracts, and rely on reading glasses for near tasks.
This trial tests a new LASIK technique called PRESBYOND to improve vision at all distances in people with presbyopia (age-related need for reading glasses). It uses the MEL90 excimer laser to reshape the cornea.
This trial tests a new light-based treatment to help aging eyes focus better on close objects, which could reduce the need for reading glasses.
This trial tests a tiny device inserted into the eye to help people aged 45–60 who have trouble seeing up close. If you have good distance vision but struggle reading or seeing near objects, this study may help you see better without glasses for reading.
This study compares two types of glasses (single-vision vs. progressive lenses) to see which one helps people with aging-related reading difficulty (presbyopia) see better and feel better in daily life. You may qualify if you are 40–70 and have trouble reading up close but haven't used reading glasses recently.
This trial tests a specific cataract replacement lens to see how safe it is and how well it improves vision. If you have cataracts in both eyes and are good candidate for cataract surgery, this lens may help you see more clearly after surgery.
