Company Summary

Presbyopia, linked to natural ageing of the eye, is a focus defect which creates short distance vision problems. This universal defect has not found today a satisfactory chirurgical solution for people who do not want to have the constraint of wearing glasses when they reach the 40’s. Based on patented concepts developed by an ophtalmologist, Presbeasy develops a new implant, an innovative solution which is efficient, reversible and non-invasive.
