The effectiveness of corneal modifications.
The immediate effects of corneal modification procedures vary by patient.
Some patients no longer need to wear eyeglasses while others require eyeglasses
or contact lenses of a lesser strength. Long term effects are still being
studied and are unknown at this point; however, all prospective patients should
be aware that prescription lenses may eventually be needed for presbyopia
(a common vision condition that develops as the eye ages). To make a wise
choice, discuss your options thoroughly with your doctor of optometry.
