Can Lasik Surgery correct Reading Vision?

Los Angeles Lasik Surgeon Dr. Caster is an expert in laser vision correction. He firmly believes that through presbyopia cannot be cured, we can achieve correction through lasik. If you are an individual needing reading vision correction and considering laser eye surgery in Southern California , you will find this article very interesting.

Lasik alters the shape of the cornea, which is the clear tissue in the very front of the eye. The need for reading glasses that comes as we get older (known as presbyopia) is a result of the aging of the lens deep inside the eye, behind the colored part of the eye. Presbyopia means "old eyes". So Lasik cannot correct presbyopia. However, Lasik can be used to create monovision, just as glasses or contact lenses do, in which one eye is adjusted for distance and one for near. Many Los Angeles Monovision patients prefer contact lenses to the alternative of using reading glasses. The same effects can be achieved with Lasik. If you are considering monovision, it is highly recommend that you try it first
