LASIK only corrects the vision for distance, and does not eliminate the need for reading glasses. Beginning at around the age of 40, a condition called presbyopia usually appears in adults, requiring reading glasses or bifocal correction. If you develop presbyopia, there are surgical options that Toledo LASIK offers that can assist with this, such as the KAMRA corneal inlay. When a patient gets a KAMRA inlay, the surgeon uses a laser to create a pocket inside the cornea. Then the surgeon places the inlay inside of the pocket. The inlay allows the patient to keep a good distance while gaining better reading.For this reason, LASIK patients should confirm the experience of their surgeon to determine if they have specialized training in cornea surgery. Because LASIK is performed on the cornea, knowledge of the healing properties of the cornea and management of any complications are critical to the patient’s well-being. Knowing how to handle a complication should one occur can make a significant difference in the patient’s outcome.
