Understanding Vision Changes in Your 40s
If you’re in your 40s and struggling to read small print or notice your eyes feel drier than usual, you’re not alone. Vision changes around this age are very common—and very manageable. At Eye Surgery Associates, we help patients in Pembroke Pines, Hollywood, Weston, and Boynton Beach adjust to these changes with expert, compassionate care.
👀 Why Does Your Vision Change After 40?
One of the most common age-related changes is presbyopia—the gradual loss of your eye’s ability to focus on nearby objects. You might find yourself holding books farther away or needing brighter light to read. It’s not a disease—it’s just a normal part of aging.
Other common vision changes include:
- Dry Eye Syndrome: Less tear production can lead to burning, itching, and blurry vision.
- Poor Night Vision: Headlights may feel too bright or cause more glare than before.
- Increased Risk of Eye Conditions: Issues like cataracts, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration become more likely after 40.
These changes can be frustrating, but they don’t have to impact your quality of life. With the right care, your vision can remain sharp and comfortable for years to come.
