PresbyMAX - Optimal treatment technology for people with presbyopia

(Dan Tri) - Presbyopia is a refractive error in the elderly that makes it difficult to see nearby objects clearly, causing inconvenience in life. With PresbyMAX surgical technology, the quality of life of the elderly with presbyopia will be significantly improved.

Presbyopia and the need for surgery today

According to statistics in 2015 published in the US National Library of Medicine, there are about 1.8 billion people worldwide with presbyopia. And this number is expected to increase in the future to about 2.1 billion people by 2030. About 85% of people aged 40 and over have presbyopia. The rate and severity of presbyopia also increase with age.

Although the prevalence of presbyopia is reported to be higher in regions with high life expectancy, it is estimated that in developing countries up to 94% of people have significant near visual impairment due to uncorrected presbyopia.

People with presbyopia can use glasses to partially improve their vision, but wearing and using glasses all the time is one of the causes of reduced quality of life in people over 40 years old.

Therefore, to improve the quality of life, advanced presbyopia surgery technologies, typically PresbyMAX, have been born, considered the optimal choice for people with refractive problems such as presbyopia, bringing bright, healthy eyes, improving the quality of life, helping patients no longer depend on glasses.

PresbyMAX Surgical Technology - The optimal solution for presbyopia

PresbyMAX is recommended by ophthalmologists because it meets the needs of patients such as: effectiveness, safety, short time and quick recovery. PresbyMAX is a presbyopia surgery technology that uses Excimer laser to adjust the optical zone on the cornea individually for each patient. The adjustment of the corneal structure is minimally invasive, safe for the eyes, improving the ability to see near, intermediate, and far.

BSCKII. Bui Tien Hung - Anh Sang Eye Hospital, said: "PresbyMAX uses multifocal, double aspheric ablation technology. Each concentric zone is a multifocal lens with a transition zone that supports intermediate vision. Similar to the principle of multifocal contact lenses or intraocular lenses, PresbyMAX creates a multifocal cornea".

BSCKII. Bui Tien Hung shares his experience in presbyopia surgery at the Schwinday conference.

Because each eye's vision is different, presbyopia surgery is also adjusted separately for each eye, to achieve the best results, providing clear vision (from near to far). PresbyMAX has 3 surgical methods, suitable for each eye condition and patient's needs such as PresbyMax μ-Monovision, PresbyMax Hybrid, PresbyMax Monocular.

PresbyMAX Hybrid - Latest Generation: Creates different depths of focus in the dominant and non-dominant eyes. The benefits of this method are fast recovery, high quality of vision at all distances, especially good distance vision.

PresbyMAX μ-Monovision: Adjusts to create the same depth of focus in all eyes. However, the dominant eye focuses on distance and the non-dominant eye focuses on near. The benefits of this method are quick recovery time, good distance and intermediate vision, and good spatial vision.

PresbyMAX Monocular: Creates depth of focus only in the non-dominant eye. The dominant eye focuses for distance vision. This method provides exceptionally good distance vision.

PresbyMAX surgery is performed on the German Schwind Amaris laser system distributed in the Vietnamese market by Viet Can Trading and Service Joint Stock Company.

Advantages of PresbyMAX presbyopia surgery technology

PresbyMAX surgical technology has many outstanding advantages such as: minimally invasive, customized for each patient, easy reversal, minimizing aberrations and refractions, quick recovery... PresbyMAX uses Excimer laser with high precision, safety, no contact.

Six-month post-operative results showed high visual performance at both distance and near. Before surgery, many patients had good distance vision with glasses of 20/20 or better. Six months post-operatively, 79% of patients had distance vision of 20/20 or better without glasses. The safety and high effectiveness of PresbyMAX have been clinically proven, making it the first choice for people with presbyopia.

At the Schwinday conference, MSc. Dr. Le Nguyen Huy Cuong shared his experience with PresbyMAX surgery on the Schwind Amaris refractive surgery system.

According to ThS.BSCKI. Le Nguyen Huy Cuong - Deputy Director of Professional Affairs - Saigon Eye Ngo Gia Tu, the multifocal corneal properties of PresbyMAX are stable over time for both near and far vision, meeting the expectations of patients. Recovery time and flap healing after surgery is only about 1 day.

There have been more than 11,000 successful surgeries worldwide using PresbyMAX surgery technology. To date, PresbyMAX is still the leading pioneering technology in presbyopia surgery, chosen by many doctors to advise patients as an optimal solution.
