Vuity is indicated for the treatment of presbyopia, commonly known as age-related farsightedness, in adults. It is designed to improve near and intermediate vision for daily activities like reading or using digital devices.
Vuity contains pilocarpine, a cholinergic muscarinic agonist. When instilled in the eye, it causes the pupil to constrict (miosis), creating a pinhole effect that increases depth of focus and allows for clearer near vision.
Vuity is for topical ophthalmic use only and should not be ingested. Common side effects may include headache, brow ache, and blurred distance vision. Patients with certain eye conditions, history of retinal detachment, or those using other eye medications should consult their healthcare provider before use. Results may vary between individuals.
