What Is Vision Like After Smart Lens Surgery?
What can be expected after surgery?
The time it takes for vision to recover can vary from person to person. The condition of the eye before surgery, the health of the retina and cornea, and the features of the lens used all affect the result.
Will glasses be needed?
In suitable patients, the need for glasses at different distances may decrease. Even so, glasses may occasionally be needed for some fine tasks or certain distances.
Can halos around lights occur?
With some lenses, halos or a sense of glare around lights may be noticed, especially at night. These complaints may be felt more when driving at night. The degree of this varies from person to person.
Why are checkups important?
Using the drops as recommended after surgery and not missing checkups are important for monitoring the healing of the eye.
When is an eye examination needed?
If you have a vision complaint that is new, ongoing or affecting your daily life, it is advisable to have it evaluated with an eye examination. Symptoms such as sudden loss of vision, severe eye pain or a curtain/shadow in your visual field should be evaluated without delay.
