Blended Vision/Monovision
Overview
As we age, we begin to experience the frustrating effects of blurry near vision. Reading the newspaper, seeing the computer screen or sending a text message becomes a struggle. We end up relying more and more on reading glasses or contact lenses to see up close.
LASIK and PRK can correct eye conditions such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. However, these optical conditions are fundamentally different from presbyopia, and often get confused with farsightedness since they both affect a person’s near vision.
Blended Vision/Monovision provides a safe, lasting solution to restore your everyday near-sighted vision.
The Procedure
