A member asked:
What type of eye exam is done to diagnose presbyopia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same one: Presbyopia, or the inability to change the focus from distance to near, is determined during the course of a routine eye exam. In most cases, the diagnosis is obvious after a few minutes of conversation with the doctor.
