🚨🇺🇸 NEW EYE DROP THAT COULD MAKE READING GLASSES OBSOLETE
The FDA has greenlit VIZZ, a once-a-day prescription drop that sharpens close-up vision for up to 10 hours, targeting presbyopia - a farsightedness that hits over 128 million Americans, especially after 45, when your lenses stiffen like week-old Jell-O.
Unlike the 2021 drug Vuity, which worked but sometimes dimmed your distance vision or gave you that “I’ve been frowning for hours” brow ache, VIZZ uses aceclidine to tighten pupils without overworking the focusing muscles, skipping those side effects and avoiding rare retinal problems.
3 large trials, covering more than 30,000 treatment days, found no serious issues, and the manufacturer says prescriptions could roll out by the end of 2025.
If it works as promised, your grandkids may only know bifocals as something from the “ancient” Ben Franklin era.
