A New Successful Approach for Emmetropic Presbyopic Patients Using Intrastromal Pocket With Smile Module

Presbyopia is physiological insufficiency of accommodation associated with the aging of the eye that results in progressively worsening ability to focus clearly on close objects.Though presbyopia is a normal change in our eyes as we age, it often is a significant and emotional event because it's a sign of aging that's impossible to ignore and difficult to hide. This defect is usually corrected by using glasses with bifocal power of suitable focal lengths. But some patients don't want to use glasses for correction. In our study purpose is to show that near vision improves and patient satisfaction increases by preparing an intrastromal pocket for emmetropic patients with near vision problems using the SMILE module.
