Mono vision LASIK for Presbyopia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Materials and methods: Prospective analysis of 34 eyes of 17 patients over 40 years of age treated with Allegreto wavefront LASIK system. The study was conducted at MEDEA LASIK Centre, Little Flower hospital, Angamaly. Average patient age was 53.3 years. Pre operative refraction ranged from – 5.75 to + 2.25 diopters(D). Non dominant eyes underwent Presbyopic LASIKan aspheric pupil size dependant LASIK to induce central corneal relative flattening and peripheral corneal relative steepening. Dominant eyes underwent monofocal refraction based LASIK. Analysis of the age at the time of surgery, gender, targeted out come and patient acceptance were studied for a follow up period ranging from 9 – 18 months.

Comparison of different presbyopia treatments: refractive lens exchange with multifocal intraocular lens implantation versus LASIK monovision.
There are several methods for presbyopia treatment. Refractive lens exchange (RLE) followed by multifocal intraocular lens (MFIOL) implantation enables high rate of spectacle independence but have some visual disturbances. Laser in Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) monovision gives patient ability to have good distant vision with dominant eye and good near vision with nondominant eye. In this prospec...

PURPOSE To investigate the refractive outcomes and spherical aberration of multifocal LASIK to create a distant-dominant center and near-dominant periphery in hyperopic, myopic, and emmetropic presbyopia. METHODS One hundred ninety-five eyes with myopic presbyopia and 119 eyes with hyperopic or emmetropic presbyopia that underwent LASIK or epithelial LASIK (epi-LASIK) were assessed out to 3 m...

PURPOSE To compare the visual performance and optical quality after Raindrop Near Vision Inlay implantation or monovision LASIK for the correction of presbyopia. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective case-series study, patients previously treated in the nondominant eye with monovision LASIK were compared with patients previously implanted with Raindrop Near Vision Inlay. The study enrol...
متن کاملPresbyopic correction today
Presbyopia is the most common refractive error in patients older than 40 years. The loss of accommodation results in difficulty with near vision. Surgical means to correct this accommodative deficiency include scleral expansion band and anterior ciliary sclerotomy, which enhances the movement of the ciliary body. Monovision in which the non-dominant eye is left with some myopia for near vision ...
