Laser blended vision

Laser Blended Vision is a sophisticated method of Presbyopia treatment that uses laser eye surgery to adjust and improve the vision of patients. This technique is developed by Carl Zeiss Meditec, a German manufacturer of medical devices.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Laser Blended Vision is a treatment for presbyopia, a condition that affects the eye's ability to focus on close objects. This condition is a natural part of aging and typically becomes noticeable in the mid-40s. Laser Blended Vision uses laser technology to create a blend zone, which allows the eye to see both near and far objects clearly.

Procedure[edit | edit source]

The procedure involves the use of a laser to reshape the cornea, the clear front part of the eye. One eye is treated to see better at a distance (dominant eye), and the other eye is treated to see better up close (non-dominant eye). The brain then combines the two images to create a single, clear image. This is known as Monovision.

Benefits[edit | edit source]

The main benefit of Laser Blended Vision is that it can reduce or eliminate the need for reading glasses or bifocals. It also has a high success rate, with most patients achieving 20/20 vision or better.

Risks and Complications[edit | edit source]

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with Laser Blended Vision. These can include dry eyes, glare, halos, and difficulty with night vision. However, these side effects are usually temporary and can be managed with medication or additional treatment.
