As a man or woman arrives at the age of 40, their short-range eyesight typically begins to blur. This change in vision is called presbyopia, and it impacts the ability to focus on objects that are near the eyes. It is a completely normal, extremely routine part of the aging process. It happens because certain parts of our eyes start to lose flexibility as we age. Nearly everyone, even individuals who have had wonderful vision their entire lives, could begin to notice that they need to position medicine bottles or other items farther away to see them clearly. Some may also notice headaches or aching eyes from activities that never gave them issues previously. At their practice in Phoenix, AZ, optometrists Dr. Neha Amin LaCorte and Dr. Mary Hardy offer some great options to improve your eyesight if you have age-related vision problems. If you feel you are developing presbyopia, get an appointment at Advanced Vision & Achievement Center so we can help you maintain your clearest vision.
What are the Symptoms of presbyopia?
Older adults who have begun to be presbyopic will generally first notice that they can no longer see objects that are near the eyes as well as they used to. A tell-tale sign of age-related vision impairment is noticing you need to hold objects farther and farther away to be able to make them out. A further indication is suffering from headaches or eye fatigue after specific activities, such as sewing or using a mobile device, that previously did not cause them. Also quite common is the incorrect idea that reduced vision is caused by inadequate lighting. Presbyopia nearly always starts to develop at approximately 40 years of age, and if not treated properly, its symptoms can get worse.
Advanced Vision & Achievement Center Reviews
This office is very knowledgeable and kind. They have helped my son's tremendously. Thank you Dr Amin and team!
I love this place so much. I absolutely would recommend this place to anyone with vision care needs. Dr Hardy is collaborative and attentive to your needs. Clear communication is something you don't get at other vision care places but Dr Hardy is on it. They don't overprice contact lenses either! They've even helped me out when I received a defective lens. I cannot recommend Dr Hardy or the staff here enough. 11/10 service, affordability and care if I could rate it that way.
I recently completed a series of vision therapy sessions with Advanced vision and achievement center. Thelma is my mentor for the eye exercises. From the outset, Thelma's friendliness and approachability set a comforting tone for the entire therapy process. Thelma's dedication to her work is evident in her meticulous attention to detail and her genuine concern for her patients' progress. She was incredibly supportive throughout the sessions, always available to assist and encourage me with each exercise. The individualized care and guidance provided by Thelma have made a significant difference in my vision. I have noticed a remarkable improvement in the coordination of my eyes, which has positively impacted my daily life. Dr. Forest and Thelma's contribution to my vision health has been invaluable, and I highly recommend their services to anyone considering vision therapy. Thank you for your exceptional care and for making such a positive difference in my life."
Nice people nice place
Hello, I'm very grateful for the care I've received from Dr. Amin and her staff. My vision has improved after a debilitating accident one year ago. Dr. Amin's expertise and guidance have helped me to make better progress than I imaged. It's been a long road to recovery, but I couldn't have done it without the team at Advanced Vision.
