PA030 Brain Plasticity Overcomes Presbyopia: Persistence Over Time
Purpose: In presbyopia, uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA) results in blurred images and progresses with age. We showed that perceptual training on PC and mobile devices improved the UCNVA by ~2.5 ETDRS lines and enabled glasses-free reading without optical changes. Here we tested the persistence of these training gains. Methods: Sixty presbyopes were trained at 40 cm for 15-30 min/session, 3 times/week. Results: The improvement of the UCNVA continued for 6.22 years (average: 2.45 years), despite the natural deterioration of ~0.5 D and 2 ETDRS lines expected during this time. Conclusion: Perceptual training produces an effective solution that overcomes the continuous effect of natural deterioration of vision in presbyopia by enhancing image processing in the brain.
