Ever notice your arms “getting longer” around age 40? In this episode, Dr. Adam Hickenbotham, founding dean of RMU’s College of Optometric Medicine, breaks down presbyopia. He discusses why near vision changes with age, what’s happening inside the eye’s lens, and what options exist beyond grabbing another pair of readers. He also discusses FDA-approved presbyopia eye drops, lens replacement options, and an emerging laser approach being studied for longer-term correction. Plus: practical eye health tips that support aging vision.
