In the last five years, lens technology has developed to the point where we are able to give people excellent near and far vision without the need for glasses at any distance. That means that you can see the TV across the room as well as the book in your lap with no need to look above or below a pair of glasses. The surgery itself has also evolved so that it involves an incision that is about one tenth of an inch wide and requires no stitch. Because of these advances, many people are opting for this procedure in their 40s and 50s just to get out of reading glasses for good, because the procedure doesn’t wear off and a cataract will never form later in life to decrease vision.
There are several different choices of lenses available today. Dr. Hunter will sit down with you and go through your choices and work with you to decide which lens will be the best decision for your eyes. Your complete Hunter Vision Analysis gives us all the information we need to be sure that we are helping you make the right choice for you.
