Presbyopia is a natural consequence of the ageing of the eye’s crystalline lens which usually appears between 40-45 years of age.
The eye’s crystalline lens loses its capability for focusing and accommodation which results in progressively reduced ability to focus on close objects.

The main cause of presbyopia is the ageing of the eye’s crystalline lens located behind the iris. The lens is responsible for focusing on objects at different distances, and when it stiffens as a consequence of the natural ageing process, accommodation and correct focusing of close objects are affected. This effect is similar to what happens when we try to focus on close objects with a camera using a long focus lens.
