ReSTOR® and Cataract Surgery
After surgery for a cataract (blurred vision due to clouding of the eye’s lens), patients have often still needed reading glasses or bifocals. Now, with a unique technological development, the new ReSTOR® intraocular lens (IOL) can eliminate that need for additional vision help, giving cataract patients the best opportunity ever to see well without glasses, whether up close, far away, or in between. The ReSTOR® lens is implanted in the eye as a replacement for the cataract-affected lens, as are older types of IOLs. The older IOLs restore vision in a limited distance range. The amazing difference that the ReSTOR® lens provides is significantly improved vision at all distances.
The ReSTOR® lens can do this because it’s configured to distribute the light coming into the eye as a response to how wide or small the eye's pupil is at the time. This light distribution design is called “apodized diffractive optics,” a kind of optics that’s been used for decades to improve the quality of telescopes and microscopes. Now cataract patients can benefit from this technology too!
The ReSTOR® lens (from Alcon) was approved by the FDA, after extensive clinical trials showed that 80 percent of the cataract patients who received a ReSTOR® lens didn’t need glasses after their surgery.
Are you a candidate for cataract surgery? Would you like to do without those bothersome bifocals or reading glasses? Then Contact us about this exciting new development, the ReSTOR® lens.

iZon Customized Eyeglasses: High-Definition Vision
Have you seen the fantastic difference between high-definition TV and “conventional” TV? Would you like to have glasses that provide true high-definition, whether for day or nighttime activity, up-close and at a distance? Ophthonix has introduced iZon Customized Eyeglasses, based on new vision technology that allows your unique optical fingerprint, or “iPrint™,” to be corrected with fully customized lenses. These lenses are made as a one-of-a-kind match for your eyes.
In fact, like fingerprints, no two eyes are exactly alike — even your own two eyes differ. (That’s why retinal scanning is being developed to identify and differentiate individuals; each of us has a unique retinal signature.) But until now, many people the world over have received the exact same prescription for their eyes. Today, your unique vision correction solution is attainable: iZon Eyeglasses have literally thousands of points of correction, providing high-def vision that will make your old glasses seem like a TV from a bygone era.
The maker of iZon lenses, Ophthonix, uses wavefront technology to measure each eye, and programs an individual’s unique iPrint into its special lens material on a point-by-point basis, achieving stunning clarity and crispness of vision. Each iZon lens is thus uniquely optimized for the patient.

Patient Testimonials
Dear Vision Professionals,
Six months ago, you performed a miracle I call the Lasik laser eye surgery a miracle because I no longer wear glasses.
The alarm clock is visible in the morning; sweat doesn’t for my glasses; swimming is spontaneous and worry free; and best of all: I will be able to see my new baby when she is born and growing up without the hassle of glasses.
My vision was very poor and I lead an active life. Many of your peers said I was the perfect candidate. I visited several clinics, attended seminars and explored the Internet for several years. I even had another doctor conduct a pre-exam. But, I still had concerns.
You were the only doctors that gave me real answers to my questions. I was very concerned since I valued the little vision I had. After you honestly answered my questions (not with canned responses) you gave me a very compete eye exam, measure the moisture in my eye, the thickness of the cornea, computer mapped the eyes, etc. The other clinics never gave me such tests,
Your professionalism, honest answers and meticulous attention to detail gave me the confidence to have the procedure. It was the best thing I have ever done. The follow-up care continues to impress me. I feel comfortable in recommending you to anyone I know. Thanks again.
Sincerely and seeing clearly,
Michael C. Wales II |
