Monovision LASIK is a variation of traditional LASIK surgery in which one eye is treated for near vision (presbyopia) and the other for distance vision. The goal is to reduce the need for reading glasses by providing one eye with sharp near vision and the other with improved distance vision.
This technique is particularly useful for people over 40 who experience difficulty reading up close due to age-related vision changes. Monovision LASIK offers a convenient, non-invasive solution to presbyopia, reducing or eliminating the need for bifocals or reading glasses.
Although many patients find the results of monovision LASIK highly effective, it may take some time to adjust to the difference in vision between the two eyes.
