At our Maine LASIK Eye Center at Eyecare Medical Group in Portland we find that for some patients, Near Vision and Presbyopia may be corrected with LASIK Monovision. LASIK Monovision is an FDA-approved procedure that corrects one eye for distance and one eye for near. Using LASIK Monovision addresses the need for two different focal lengths by focusing each eye at a different focal length. People over 40, who require glasses for distance vision nearsighted or myopic individuals frequently find that they can read up close quite well without their glasses. Correcting their distance vision to 20/20 almost always means that they will need glasses to be able to read up close. This is because they can no longer focus or adjust their focal length. Typically in LASIK Monovision, the eye that is corrected for distance is the dominant eye and the eye that is corrected for near is the non-dominant eye. If LASIK Monovision is a good choice for correcting your near vision, Drs. Serrage, Holt, Cassidy & Sterrer and the staff will make that recommendation for you and spend the time necessary to answer your questions.
It is most important to discuss all of your concerns and questions with Drs. Serrage, Holt, Cassidy & Sterrer and staff at the Maine LASIK Eye Center at Eyecare Medical Group so that they can take the time to explain any information that you may be uncertain about.
