When you need eye care, to whom should you go? An Optometrist? An Ophthalmologist? An Optician? Here’s a look at the differences between them?

The optometrist provides all primary eye care services and is generally the first eye care professional to see. If you need the surgical services of an ophthalmologist, the optometrist will refer you to the appropriate one. If you need glasses and have a prescription it can be filled by our opticians, whether it’s from our office or somewhere else.

As we perform daily activities such as reading, watching television or working at the computer, our eyes are constantly focusing on objects at varying distances – up close, far away and everything in-between. The ability to quickly change focus throughout this range of vision is called accommodation. Unfortunately, this ability diminishes as we grow older, causing us to become dependent on bifocals or reading glasses. However, the AcrySof® ReSTOR® IOL was designed to provide quality near to distance vision by combining the strengths of apodized diffractive and refractive technologies. Similar technology has been used for years in microscopes and telescopes to improve image quality, and has now been patented for use in intraocular lenses by Alcon.

The AcrySof ReSTOR IOL is a unique technological innovation that can provide you with quality vision throughout the entire visual spectrum.

Crystalens HD® is an accommodating intraocular lens that, unlike a standard IOL, can treat both a person’s cataracts and presbyopia- loss of near and intermediate vision. You probably noticed in your forties that you started to lose some of your up-close vision and had to start wearing reading glasses. Crystalens HD® not only treats your cataracts (a clouding or hardening of your lens), but can also reduce or eliminate your dependence on glasses. It does so by recreating accommodation similar to your eye’s natural lens. The unique Crystalens HD® can reduce or eliminate glasses for most activities including: reading a book, working on the computer, and driving a car.

Now with the advent of laser technology, vision correction has entered a new era. Whether you are nearsighted (myopic), farsighted (hyperopic), or have astigmatism, laser vision correction is the most technologically advanced method available today to reduce your dependence on glasses and contact lenses.
