Presbyopia is a weakening of the focusing mechanism that helps us switch between distance and close-up vision.

In short, the eye no longer accommodates the way it used to. This often translates into difficulty reading. When you come for a free consultation at one of our clinics, we will give you all the information you need on the best option to treat your vision problem.

A procedure that’s simpler than you’d think

Cataract surgery involves replacing the eye’s natural crystalline lens, which over time has lost its transparency, with an artificial intraocular lens. Several types of such lenses are available at our clinic to provide you with the one that’s right for you. During the procedure, Dr. Pop makes a tiny incision, removes the crystalline lens and inserts the intraocular lens in its place. Most patients notice their vision is already better one day after surgery. Vision continues to improve until the eye has healed completely, which takes approximately one month.

Today, myopia, or nearsightedness, can be corrected by reshaping the eye’s surface using an Excimer laser to reduce the eye’s curve and eliminate the need to wear glasses or contact lenses. When you get a free evaluation at one of our clinics, you’ll get all the information you need on the treatment of choice for your vision problem.

The cornea has an oval shape instead of a round one, which deforms vision. Astigmatism can be present alone or in association with other vision problems, such as myopia or hyperopia. As a result, it is corrected alone or along with the myopia or hyperopia.
