Vision Care by Co/op Optical In young eyes, the lens is soft and flexible. As we grow older, the lens loses its flexibility and hardens or "sets." By the time we reach 40, the lens begins to lose its ability to change shape. Since the older lens cannot change its shape as easily as it once did, the eye has increasing difficulty focusing up close. Because of this, older people often have difficulty seeing nearby objects clearly, and in reading fine print. This is a perfectly normal condition called presbyopia. There is no exercise or medication that will reverse this process. To help the eye focus, reading glasses or bifocals are needed. New glasses will be required about every two years to overcome visual blur caused by the increased hardening of the inter lens.
