As your eyes age, changes lead to loss of accommodation or ability to focus up close.
For many, this means succumbing to carrying around magnifier or reading glasses to see their iPads, cellphones, and magazines. Fortunately, the last decade has seen many options to reduce the need for reading glasses.
Host of The Wizard of Eyes, Dr. Robert Abel, welcomes Dr. Ravi Patel, a renowned ophthalmologist and refractive surgeon, to share his wisdom about various surgical options including LASIK, multifocal IOLS, and the newest FDA approved option of Corneal Inlays, as well as other procedures.
Listen in to learn how you can use these methods to correct vision as an alternative to contact lenses and glasses.
