KAMRA Near Vision Inlay is a great new technology for people who can see well, in middle-age, at distance, but are struggling with near vision.
This is a small inlay in the cornea, that we do under a normal LASIK flap, which we’ve been doing for 20 years. Once you’ve had the procedure, your eyes will settle out for good reading vision and some good intermediate vision as well.
Have you ever forgotten your readers and used your prescription sunglasses to read indoors?
Your eyes produce tears containing natural infection-fighting antibiotics every second. Blinking spreads the tears over the eyes’ surface before being drained through two small holes in the nasal corner of your eyelids. These tear ducts are known as puncta and drain tears to the nose and throat.
If your tear glands make insufficient tears, or they drain away too quickly, the tear film is spread too thinly over the eyes’ surface. If your tear glands produce enough tears but are of poor quality, they evaporate too quickly before the next blink comes along, which can cause irritation.
If untreated, damage to the outer protective tissue of the cornea opens a route of infection with the risk of permanent scarring and sight loss.
