Monovision is a concept in vision correction that involves using one eye primarily for near vision and one eye primarily for far vision. Using either contact lenses or refractive surgery as the mode of delivery, the doctor corrects the sight in each eye to a specific distance. For those with certain vision problems, monovision can be a helpful way to correct vision. The problems that monovision addresses have mainly to do with presbyopia, which is a natural degeneration in the eye that occurs as people age. It becomes harder and harder for the eye to change focus from near to far, which is why reading glasses are used by so many people over the age of 40. Monovision attempts to help with these vision problems, often helping to extend the length of time before reading glasses become necessary. Monovision Problems Corrected
At the Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley, the team of top vision correction surgeons help patients every day to make the right choices for their vision now and into the future. Monovision is a procedure that is essentially another tool in the toolbox. Recommended most for those experiencing the problems associated with presbyopia, monovision can often be of help.
Some people experience problems as a result
of monovision, and these can be corrected. Eyes vary
so much from person to person that there is no blanket
solution for all eyes. The best step to take when considering
monovision, or when considering having monovision removed,
is to talk with the experts at the Laser Eye Center
of Silicon Valley. Contact the Center today to learn
more.
