Treatment options for age-related difficulty focusing on close objects include glasses and contact lenses, lens replacement surgery, and LASIK eye surgery. The recommended treatment depends on individual needs and is discussed during a consultation. A full consultation is required to provide an accurate estimate. Patients should bring prescription glasses, sunglasses or a hat, a list of current medications and medical history, and relevant Medicare, private health fund or pension cards. A referral letter is required to qualify for a Medicare rebate for the initial consultation and tests or procedures.
