Now at Big City Optical: Vizz Drops — Chicago’s Newest Way to Skip the Readers

Nov 14, 2025

If you’re constantly reaching for reading glasses to check a text, read a menu, or scroll your phone — you’re not alone. Near vision loss, known as presbyopia, is a normal part of aging. But the way we treat it is changing.

Say hello to Vizz Drops, a once-a-day prescription eye drop that helps restore crisp, clear near vision for up to 10 hours. And they’re now available at Big City Optical, one of the first practices in Chicago to offer this exciting new option.

What Are Vizz Drops?

Vizz Drops are designed for adults experiencing presbyopia, a common, age-related condition that makes it harder to focus on things up close, especially after age 40. Instead of relying on readers or bulky multi-focus glasses, patients can now apply just one drop per eye each morning and enjoy improved near vision throughout the day.

This is more than a convenience; it’s a true innovation in vision care. Unlike lubricating drops that only relieve dryness, Vizz is a prescription treatment that changes how your eyes focus, helping you see more clearly and confidently. For anyone frustrated with switching between glasses or struggling to read up close, this breakthrough could be life-changing.

Vizz Drops are part of a new era in eye care, and Big City Optical is proud to be leading the way.

How Do They Work?

Vizz Drops use a unique mechanism that temporarily reduces the size of your pupils. This creates an increased depth of focus, allowing your eyes to bring near objects into sharper clarity, all while preserving your distance vision. It’s a subtle shift that can make a major difference in your daily life.

Here’s what patients love:

  • See results within 30 minutes
  • Near vision clarity for up to 10 hours
  • Comfortable and easy to apply
  • Designed for daily use under optometrist supervision

Backed by clinical trials, Vizz has shown real results: 91% of people saw near vision improvement within 30 minutes, and up to 41% of participants even reported clearer distance vision.

And now, thanks to the team at Big City Optical, this technology is available right here in Chicago. Whether you’re reading a text or navigating your workday, Vizz Drops can help you do it more clearly, and more confidently.

Expert-Led, Patient-Focused: Training with Dr. Jerry Horn

Our doctors at Big City Optical recently completed advanced, hands-on training with Dr. Jerry Horn, the inventor of Vizz Drops and one of the most respected names in presbyopia research. This specialized education means our team understands not only how Vizz works, but how to deliver the best possible outcomes for every patient we treat.

Being one of the first practices in Chicago to offer Vizz is no accident; it’s part of our commitment to bringing you the most forward-thinking care available anywhere.

  • You’re finding it harder to read up close

Because Vizz is a prescription treatment, it’s not for everyone. But that’s why we’re here. At Big City Optical, we’ll guide you through a full exam, discuss your goals, and help you decide whether Vizz Drops are the right fit for your vision and lifestyle.

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all product — it’s personalized care, backed by science, from a team that’s trained to deliver results.
