Discover everything you need to know about PresbyMAX

PresbyMAX suitability

https://youtu.be/hkXSaJCoH88 Almost everyone has to expect their vision to deteriorate from around the age of 45.
But this does not have to be the case.
Although this age-related and therefore completely normal process cannot be stopped, it can be treated.
Until now, classic reading glasses or varifocals, sometimes intraocular lenses, contact lenses or the LASIK procedure have been used for treatment.
The minimally invasive PresbyMAX method offers a gentle and high-quality alternative.
Over 10,000 successful treatments have already been carried out worldwide.
Even with advanced presbyopia, it is possible to achieve excellent results.
It is therefore possible to dispense with reading glasses in future and even correct other visual defects if necessary.
The PresbyMAX procedure is also suitable for patients with presbyopia and other basic visual defects.

PresbyMAX treatment steps

PresbyMAX – laser eye method for the treatment of presbyopia

At EyeLaser, we only offer PresbyMax in combination with Femto-LASIK.
This is a special technique that consists partly of monovision in combination with multifocality. 1 .
Die Vorbereitung
We first disinfect your facial area.
You will be given a local anesthetic in the form of eye drops.
Your eyelids will be fixed in place.
All of this is absolutely painless and painless.
You will be asked to keep the green light fixed above you throughout the operation. 2. the incision with the femtosecond laser Using the high-precision femtosecond laser, the eye surgeon makes an incision in the cornea to create a 0.1 mm thin lid – the flap.
This is carefully folded back.
You may feel a slight pressure on the eye and it will darken briefly.
https://youtu.be/TZJ6WVuPzUo 3. Correction with the excimer laser The eye surgeon now uses the excimer laser.
The computer-controlled laser is used to reshape the exposed cornea in just a few seconds in order to correct the visual defect.
Again, you will not notice anything except the sound of the laser and possibly the smell of the cornea.
The surgeon checks the use of the laser through a microscope. 4 Conclusion In the final step, the flap is folded back again.
It reattaches itself and forms an endogenous protection for the cornea.
If necessary, you will be fitted with highly oxygen-permeable contact lenses to protect against environmental influences, which are removed the next day.
That’s it!
After the procedure, there is initially a clear change for the patient.
Vision is perceived as different from that with glasses.
Patients usually (but not always) experience 3 phases (neuroadaptation):

  1. Adaptation: everything is new, seeing is rediscovered
  2. The tolerance phase: you can see well but vision is still perceived as somewhat unpleasant
  3. The phase of acceptance: Yoptimal vision at a distance and close up interacting with the brain.

All these phases together should not last longer than 6 months.

PresbyMAX advantages

Advantages of the PresbyMAX method

  • Treatment time very short
  • Visual acuity at close range, the inside of the eye is not treated!
  • Close-up visual acuity achieved very quickly
  • Very good visual quality in most visual ranges
  • Other visual defects can be corrected at the same time
  • Comprehensive documentation of clinical results
  • High patient satisfaction
  • Over 50,000 successful treatments carried out worldwide
  • Alternative to lens exchange with the use of premium lenses (multifocal, trifocal or EDOF implants)

PresbyMAX risks

In addition to the LASIK/femto-LASIK risks, there is also the possibility that the patient will not accept the slightly different eyes or profile.
In this case, there is always the option of correcting the eyes for optimal distance (+ reading glasses).

PresbyMAX options and alternatives

If the cornea is not suitable for laser eye treatment, phakic lenses (ICL) can be inserted.
An alternative is refractive lens replacement using premium implants, which can also correct presbyopia.

Documentation of clinical results for PresbyMAX

Documentation of clinical results: Patient satisfaction speaks for itself.
What’s more, the clinical results of the PresbyMAX method have been documented and published in scientific journals – never before have there been so many documented clinical results for the correction of presbyopia and the associated laser surgery.

Free yourself from the burden of reading glasses if you are over 45

How PresbyMAX works

With PresbyMAX, you can still read small print after the age of fifty  

How your eye sees after PresbyMAX

Schematic representation and cross-section of the cornea after PresbyMAX treatment.
The near zone enables vision without a visual aid.
The intermediate zone favors good vision at medium distances, e.g. at the computer workstation.
The distance zone ensures good vision at greater distances.
The transition zone contributes to the stability of the treatment result.
The PresbyMAX laser eye treatment only takes a few minutes and does not touch or replace the sensitive lens of the eye.
Instead, the cornea is sculpted using fast laser pulses – precisely, gently and quickly.
The principle of the PresbyMAX method is similar to that of contact or intraocular lenses.
The focal points of the eye are calculated precisely.
For this purpose, the cornea is modeled for near vision (in the center) and far vision (towards the periphery).
This results in good visual acuity at all distances – whether near or far.
There are various treatment options for the PresbyMAX method, which we will be happy to explain to you individually.
Achieving visual acuity is comparable to the speed of the LASIK method and is therefore not long in coming.
You can do without your reading glasses just a few hours after the laser treatment.
Within a week, however, you will be able to see well in the distance and at medium distances.
Full, multifocal vision, on the other hand, requires several weeks before the overall quality of vision is fully restored.
At EyeLaser, PresbyMax is only offered in combination with Femto-LASIK.
This is a special optic which partly consists of monovision, the increase in spherical aberrations and multifocal vision.
