The Future Looks Clear with Vuity Eye Drops, the Solution to Age-Related Blurry Near Vision (Presbyopia)

If you find yourself using “cheaters”, or over the counter reading glasses, to read a book, see your computer screen, smartphone or simply read directions, your eyes are likely losing their ability to see clearly close up due to aging.


This frustrating condition, called presbyopia, is a blurry reality for many people over the age of 40. Presbyopia happens as the lens behind the colored iris of the eye, which changes shape so you can see, becomes more rigid.


What Is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia is a common condition that is also known as age-related blurry near vision. According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, presbyopia comes from the Greek word for “old eye”. Focusing up close becomes more difficult for people over the age of 40 with this condition because their lens resists changing shape. While distanced vision does not tend to be the issue, looking at objects close up is. Sure, you can hold the newspaper at an arm’s length away to be able to decipher it, but without correcting your diminished near vision you will likely suffer from eye strain and headaches.


Presbyopia is often cited as a natural, often annoying part of aging. We agree – but what if it didn’t have to be? Have your eye doctor at the Ross Eye Institute confirm your diagnosis at your next eye exam and discuss management options including glasses, contact lenses and Vuity Eye drops.


What Are Vuity Eye Drops?

Vuity Eye Drops are the only FDA approved prescription eye drop proven to treat presbyopia when taken once daily. It is a pilocarpine HCL ophthalmic solution used to remedy the detrimental eye-condition that is age-related blurry near vision that is currently affecting 128 million Americans.


Vuity Eye Drops are a fast fix that won’t disrupt your everyday life. They last for 6-10 hours a day and generally begin working within 15 minutes.


How Do Vuity Eye Drops Help?

The optimized formulation that is Vuity Eye Drops uses pHast™ technology to quickly adjust the physiologic pH of the tear film. The drops use the eye’s natural ability to reduce pupil size to its advantage, improving near and immediate sight without disrupting distanced vision.


Putting a drop of this advanced formula in each eye, once a day, could change the lives of nearly half of the United States population. Discarding your drugstore frames and disregarding the risk of any complications from refractive surgery could be just a drop (in each eye) away.
