Скачать или смотреть Near Vision Decline After 40 & How to Prevent It | Gunjan Shouts Podcast ft. Dr. Mahipal S. Sachdev

In this insightful episode of the Gunjan Shouts Podcast, host Gunjan sits down with Dr. Mahipal S. Sachdev, Chairman of Centre for Sight, to discuss why near vision starts to decline after the age of 40–45 and what can be done to manage or delay it.

Dr. Sachdev explains the science behind presbyopia—how the natural lens of the eye loses elasticity with age, reducing its ability to focus on near objects. The discussion covers the role of lens elasticity, ciliary muscles, and accommodation, and why almost everyone needs reading glasses after a certain age.

You’ll also learn about:
➤ Eye exercises, nutrition, and lifestyle tips to delay presbyopia onset
➤ The role of new eye drops like pilocarpine for improving near vision
➤ How the pinhole test works to detect refractive errors
➤ Surgical options like Presbyopic LASIK and Lens Exchange for those who wish to avoid glasses

Whether you’re in your 40s or preparing ahead of time, this podcast is packed with practical advice for maintaining healthy vision.
