Presbyond is the most advanced procedure ZEISS laser procedure, designed for people over 40 years old to eliminate or significantly reduce the need for reading and distance glasses.
The treatment is personalized and offers good vision without glasses at all distances, while maintaining depth of visual field.
Presbyond addresses all types of deficiencies that accompany presbyopia: myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism. It is a technique performed with two types of lasers: femtosecond and excimer.
After age 40, due to the “wear” of the eye’s fine accommodation mechanisms, near vision becomes difficult. This decrease in acuity is called presbyopia.
The procedure is done with local anesthesia with drops, without any discomfort for the patient, lasts 20-30 minutes for both eyes, of which the laser action is on the order of seconds. Vision is improved immediately after surgery and the next day the patient can resume most activities.

Remarkable about Presbyond is that it reduces both distance and near diopters.
This corneal procedure involves treating the dominant eye so that it sees distant and intermediate objects and the non-dominant eye so that it sees near and intermediate.
The brain overlaps the two images and allows good vision both at distance and near, in most situations.
The surgical technique used is based on FemtoLASIK, the difference with Presbyond® consisting in the way the corneal reshaping is performed, personalized and different for each eye.
Laser reshaping requires detailed and very precise measurements of all eye structures. In addition, the Presbyond technique requires a tolerance test by which the doctor will simulate post-intervention vision and determine if your brain can adapt to it. The tolerance rate is over 95%.
Investigations include:
You will see immediately after getting up from the operating table, but vision will be “like through water”. Most patients can see to write messages on their phone immediately. For a few hours you may have burning sensations, tearing, and bright light will bother you.
In most cases recovery is very easy: immediately after surgery vision is improved, and the next day the patient can resume most activities.
Healing occurs at each person’s pace, and can last from a few days to a few weeks as the visual system recalibrates and the brain needs to gradually adapt to it.
Post-operative treatment in the first two weeks consists of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drops.
The Clario operating room is equipped with the latest surgical technologies as well as health safety and sterility.
Diopter reduction is performed with a combination of femtosecond and excimer ZEISS Visumax800 & MEL90 lasers, the world leader in this field.
(including post-operative control at one day and one week)
At Clario we have optimized all procedures, so that the time allocated by the patient is the minimum necessary. Thus:
