What is PRESBYOND®?

PRESBYOND® is an advanced method of laser vision correction that is used for treating patients with age-related loss of near vision, also known as presbyopia. In Auckland, it is available exclusively at Auckland Eye.

PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision from Carl Zeiss transcends conventional monovision methods by offering clear sight at all distances: near, intermediate and far. Better yet, virtually all patients will no longer require reading glasses. At Auckland Eye, the cost of surgery is $5,700 for both eyes.

 

PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision

PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision represents the next stage in eye care excellence. Similar to conventional monovision, the dominant eye is corrected for distance vision to almost plano (i.e. no refractive error, or what can be referred to as normal vision), whereas the non-dominant eye is corrected to be slightly myopic (i.e. nearsighted, or when distant images are blurred).

This micro-monovision strategy is then enhanced further by increasing the depth of field of each eye using a wavefront-optimised ablation profile to create a continuous refractive power gradient for the whole optical zone of the cornea.

PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision is an absolutely individualised treatment plan based on the patients eye function. As a result, a customised fusion of the two images for near and distance vision is created for each patient - the so called Blend Zone.

The Blend Zone

Essentially, the Blend Zone makes it easier for the brain to merge the images of both eyes, thereby achieving true binocular vision. This is a significant advantage over conventional monovision. In addition to near excellent near and far vision, PRESBYOND Laser Blended Vision patients also experience very good mid-range vision. They adapt faster and most are delighted about not having to wear glasses anymore.
