What is Presbyopia?

Presbyopia is an age-related vision condition that causes near objects to appear blurry. It typically starts in a person’s 40’s, when the lens of the eye begins to stiffen and lose flexibility. This makes it difficult to focus on nearby objects.

Presbyopia can significantly impact your quality of life. Regular daily activities like reading books, instruction manuals and food labels, scrolling through your phone, threading a needle and other close-up tasks can become daunting.

The good news is, with the help of Eyetique - Wexford, this common vision condition can be effectively managed, so you won’t have to compromise on your quality of life.

I truly can’t say enough good things about this office and the amazing people who work here. Since m... Show Moreoving back to Pittsburgh, I needed to find a new eye doctor, and with my difficult prescription, getting my glasses right hasn’t always been easy. The optometrist got it perfect the first time and has always been so kind, patient, thorough, and understanding. She takes the time to actually get to know me and my family, which makes every visit feel personal. The entire staff is just as incredible. While I could name specific people who have made such a difference over the years, I honestly don’t even need to — because every single person in this office deserves recognition. From the moment I walk in, I am greeted, acknowledged, helped, and taken care of from every angle. Every staff member pays attention, walks me through the process, and makes me feel like I genuinely matter. Anyone who knows me knows picking glasses is never a quick decision — I can have dozens of frames laid out trying to find “the one.” They are always patient, honest, and helpful, narrowing everything down to the perfect pairs that fit my face, my style, and my everyday life. They work with me to capitalize on my insurance benefits while also using the BOGO 1/2% each year! Over the years, I've built a nice collection with variety to compliment my wardrobe / differential facets of my lifestyle. Over the years, they’ve been there for so many little moments — the tears when my puppy chewed my glasses, the frustration of trying to find frames when I was pregnant and my face felt different, and the happy moments of finding a pair that finally felt like me. They’ve seen me through different seasons of life and have always shown kindness, patience, and compassion. There is honestly no better feeling than getting that call that my glasses are ready, coming in, putting them on, and loving my frames while my lenses are perfect the first time. They always make sure everything feels right and that I walk out confident and taken care of. Even if I moved farther away, I would still come back because finding a team that cares this much is rare. They know me, they know what works for me, and they go above and beyond every single time. I truly cannot thank them enough. They are simply amazing and deserve all the recognition for the incredible work they do.
