D istinct from monovision, in which one eye receives distance vision and the other eye reading vision, with phaser correction, both eyes are targeted for functional, distance and near vision without the use of glasses. A potential side effect of this treatment may be reduction in contrast vision requiring brighter light for comfortable reading vision. Other side effects such as halos in dim light generally dissipate over time. Preoperatively, ultrasound is used to accurately measure the eye and determine the effective lens replacement power. The phaser procedure, although performed in a sterile operating room, requires no use of needles, patches, or sutures.
Patients remain comfortable and are able to resume normal activities the very next day.
