The Ideal Strength of Reading Glasses

The older we get, the weaker our eyes become and the stronger our prescription for reading glasses may need to be. It could take a few years to enhance your reading eye but the end result will provide you with a more comfortable reading experience. You may even find you still need reading glasses after Lasik surgery.

What Does Lasik Eye Fix?

• Lasik eye surgery corrects a number of vision problems. These include:
• Fixing nearsightedness, or myopia.
• Three different options for vision correction.
• Full distance correction adjusts both your eyes for distance vision, but the patient may still need to wear reading glasses.
• Monovision is when the dominant eye is corrected for distance and the other eye is left for reading purposes. Some patients may not adjust to this type of surgery.
• Cataract surgery involves taking out the natural lens of the eye and replacing it with an artificial one. This lens allows the patient to see close up and far away while preventing cataracts.
