Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Presbyopia is a condition where the lenses in an individual's eyes start to lose their elasticity, making it difficult for them to focus on objects that are close, especially in low light conditions. This condition begins to occur in most people in their 40s and continues to worsen until their late 60s.
