Reducing Reliance on Reading Glasses

Having to whip out a pair of reading glasses to do simple tasks is not only annoying and inconvenient for some but for most looking “old” starts to become a real concern.

Laser Eye Surgery and Refractive Lens Exchange can help reduce the reliance on reading glasses or other visual hardware to do near tasks like reading the menu, using a phone, reading or as simple as reading price tags when shopping.

Monovision: A Reliable Paradigm for Presbyopes

Blended Vision or Monovision has been utilised for many years as a reliable strategy to achieve the ability to perform near and distance tasks without the aid of glasses or contact lenses. It is a term coined for those whose non-dominant eye is intentionally focused for near to reduce or sometimes remove the need for visual hardware for close range tasks such as using a mobile phone, reading, sewing and computer work, while concurrently leaving the dominant eye focused for distance tasks such as driving and watching cinema or the T.V.

Blended vision can be achieved with Laser Vision Correction or via Lens Exchange and offers a more permanent solution for those who want to be able to perform both distance and near tasks free from visual hardware.

Presbyopia: Glasses On Glasses Off

They say 40 is the new 30 but turning forty means the beginning of changes – eyes are no exception…

Presbyopia – age related farsightedness – Lens dysfunction – the arms are getting too short syndrome – the glasses on glasses off game – can’t read the menu – whatever the description, presbyopia is the gradual loss of the ability to focus for near tasks.

Starting for most from the age of 40 presbyopia results in the need to rely on reading glasses for near tasks such as reading, knitting, sewing, using the computer, mobile phone, shopping and even simple tasks such as reading a menu. For those who have never required or relied on spectacles, the sudden need to wear “reading glasses” may be onerous or inconvenient or worse yet some may become symptomatic suffering from eye strain that can cause migraines or headaches.

Removing the need for reading glasses via Laser Vision Correction (LASIK, PRK) or Clear lens extraction is a definite possibility for those who want to alleviate the need for glasses to perform near tasks.

Customised Laser Vision Correction

PRK and iLasik are completely blade free procedures and can be customised to treat your eyes, whether you are longsighted, shortsighted, astigmatic or a combination.

Every eye is as unique as a fingerprint and should be treated as such.

Wavescan eye mapping allows us to create a map that is specific to your eyes prior to treatment allowing individualized vision correction via PRK or LASIK.

Laser Vision Correction Parramatta

LASIK for those who are suitable, is still the preferred and most reliable form of corneal refractive treatment and together with femtosecond laser and wavefront guided laser treatment, it is still the treatment of choice.

Compared with the need to purchase visual hardware over a lifetime, the one off upfront cost of Laser eye surgery is still more cost effective.

iLASIK LASEK ASLA PRK SMILE and epiWhat?

These terminologies can be confusing and which to choose for you can even be more so…

All fall under the umbrella of “Bladefree” Laser Vision Correction – the premise is the same – to improve vision by reshaping the cornea through the use of laser in order to reduce dependency or in some cases altogether remove the need for glasses or contact lenses.

At Hunter Street Eye Specialists, we understand that its not a one size fits all and hence tailor each treatment to individual needs.
