Laser Blended Vision
Near, middle and far Vision Correction - Clearview Is The First in Canada To Offer
Laser Blended Vision LASIK!
This innovative procedure is for the correction of presbyopia in patients with emmetropia
as well as in patients with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Presbyopia occurs
as the eyes ages, losing ability to change the focus of the eye to zoom from distance
to near objects. Presbyopia will affect all of us at some point in our lives.
Blended Vision Laser Surgery is a viable alternative to wearing corrective spectacles
or contact lenses for many patients (near, intermediate and at a far). In LASIK
Blended Vision, laser refractive surgery is used to correct the dominant eye mainly
for distance vision and the non-dominant eye mainly for near vision, while the depth
of field (i.e. the range of distances at which the image is in focus) of each eye
is increased. As a result, the brain merges the two images, creating a customized
blend zone (i.e. a zone that is in focus for both eyes). This allows the patient
to see near, middle and far without glasses, with a 97% acceptance rate.
Before Laser Blended Vision was available, surgical presbyopic correction was achieved
by using traditional Laser Monovision correction, where one eye was focused for
distance vision and one for near vision. In traditional Laser Monovision, the depth
of field is not increased, which means Monovision is much lower than Laser Blended
Vision.
The Blended vision surgical procedure and post operative care are exactly the same
as the Custom LASIK and PRK treatments.
