What is this treatment presbyopia?
What is this treatment?
It is a revolutionary treatment developed two doctors, an Argentine and a Belgian, who for 11 years investigating the issue of treatment for presbyopia. This is a refractive condition that appears about 40 years, average age, some earlier, others later, and as it turned out, is caused by a neurotransmitter that the brain should result and that from that age starts to decrease their production. There is a muscle that is the accommodation that moves the lens, which has begun to wane after contracting. These doctors have developed a method called Benozzi method, which succeeded in isolating a drop in the neurotransmitter. Then a droplet that is placed in the eye and when the brain sends the order to get that muscle, it can do it perfectly, thus obviating the use of glasses for use soon. It is something very new that really changes the lives of people who have used long lenses.
And for those just beginning to wear glasses?
The new beginning with presbyopia, a 40 or 43 years begins to have some difficulty, it can be treated with minimal drug concentration, and thus prevents the patient having presbyopia in his life. In other words, if the tires drops d be 50 years again in the same state it was at age 40. The good thing that the patient does not need a telescope ever. And for the person who already wear glasses, until age 65 is the average age that can be treated. The lenses I use knows what it is. The glasses are uncomfortable for a lot of things, from looking in the mirror, shave, drive, watch the cell, the clock … and the truth that all this is reversible.
Does the patient begins to see instantly?
Yes, it is very fast, the patient comes here, I do some measurements, a study which type of eye I have and I put a few drops of test, expected in the courtroom about 25 minutes and 10 or 15 minutes and start making effect, and begins to see.
Is treatment expensive?
No, really has a very low cost. It is spending 30 to 40 pesos per month, which is very accessible. Treatment if you have a cost, but only once and will always go out less to do surgery. It also has a risk 0, gout is very experienced, for 11 years in thousands of patients treated. And this is reversible, because if you leave it and nothing happens when you put the drop has no side effects. The most the patient can feel it in the first two or three days is like a heaviness in the forehead, the frontal zone, because the muscle begins to work, or at night can feel like low light intensity, because a pupil contraction is produced. Nothing, zero side effects.
Do the drops have any other advantages?
Yes, because it also helps to lower eye pressure a little, for those with dry eye. And this study, but apparently it also has to be related to the development of cataract. Because the back to move the lens, this is again young, say then returns to normal, no settling of proteins and others, and there may also avoided the cataract correction, but that is being studied
