Accommodation

Accommodation is the eye’s way of changing its focusing distance:  the lens thickens, increasing its ability to focus at near.  A young person’s ability to accommodate allows him or her to see clearly far away and up close.  At about the age of 40, the lens becomes less flexible and accommodation is gradually lost, making close-range work increasingly difficult.  This is known as presbyopia.
