Light-based treatment for age-related blurry near vision
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new light-based treatment for presbyopia (age-related trouble focusing on close objects) and near vision correction. It may help reduce the need for reading glasses by reshaping the cornea, the clear front part of the eye.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 40 and 65 years old.
- Your eyes should be generally healthy, with no serious eye diseases like glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy.
- You should not have significant astigmatism (an irregularly shaped cornea) — less than 1 diopter.
- You should not have had prior corneal crosslinking or have corneal scarring or dystrophy.
- You should not have uncontrolled dry eye, active eye infections, or inflammation.
- If you are a woman, you must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

This trial tests a new treatment to improve near vision in people with presbyopia (age-related difficulty focusing on close objects). It uses a type of crosslinking to strengthen the cornea and may help you see up close without needing reading glasses.
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.
This study tests a new laser procedure that creates a tiny pocket inside your cornea (the clear front part of your eye) to help you see up close without glasses. It's for people who have presbyopia (age-related trouble focusing on nearby objects) and are tired of needing reading glasses.
This trial studies how well patients see light after getting a special kind of lens implant that helps with both near and far vision without glasses. It aims to understand how their eyes perceive brightness compared to normal vision.
This trial tests a device that may help people who need reading glasses to see nearby objects more clearly without them. It could be an option if you have good distance vision but need help with close-up tasks like reading.
This study is testing how well a specific laser eye surgery called PRESBYOND improves vision in people with presbyopia (age-related difficulty seeing close up). It helps see if the procedure is effective and safe for patients aged 45 to 65.
