PresbyMax: Presbyopia Correction Thru Multifocal LASIK

Presbyopia is among the most frequently discussed topics in refractive surgery, generating curiosity and interest worldwide among surgeons and industry.

Several treatment options aim to treat and correct presbyopia but one of which has really emerged as the top choice for presbyopia correction — PresbyMax.

PresbyMax designs the multifocal ablation profile according to the predicted postoperative outcomes for far and near distances.

At Shinagawa, we use the Amaris 1050 (Schwind eye-tech-solutions, Kleinostheim, Germany). As in any other central Presby LASIK technique, a central area is created for near vision and a peripheral area for distance vision. Multifocality, created with biaspheric ablation profiles based on optimized mathematic curves, provides adequate transitions between far and near vision.

PresbyMax is a promising surgical alternative for the correction of presbyopia, initiating the second generation of presbyLASIK techniques. PresbyMax is the first systematic and scientifically-based approach for the correction of presbyopia with an excimer laser. It is an excellent option for the compensation of initial and intermediate presbyopia in patients with spherical equivalent between 4.00 and -4.00 D.

The use of a mathematical model for predicting postoperative outcomes avoids contraindications of Presby-LASIK that may lead to visual acuity problems postoperatively.

PresbyMax is highly recommended for patients over 40 years old who want their presbyopia to be corrected for better eyesight.
