Your Vision Timeline

At Durrie Vision, we want to do more than help you see better today, we want you to see better for good.

Half the population is born with congenital eye defects that result in nearsightedness or farsightedness and will require vision correction at an early age, the other half will need vision correction once they reach their 40’s for near or reading vision as presbyopia sets in.

As we age, our eyes age as well. We know that most cases of nearsightedness will surface between 8 to 12 years of age. Eyes reach maturation usually between 18-21 years of age. The lens of the eye starts to harden and yellow as young as the age of 30, but true cataracts where vision is distorted, can hamper vision anywhere from ages 45 to 80. And, of course, the decrease of near vision, or presbyopia, sets in for everyone in their 40’s.
