Can we help you to see clearly to drive, to read or both?

If you have good near vision but you cannot see far away (a condition called short-sightedness, near-sightedness or myopia) this can be corrected.

It is also possible to perform LASIK or LASEK for someone who has the opposite problem, for somebody who can only see in the distance but cannot see up close (a condition called hypermetropia)

The same is true for patients who are have more difficulty reading as they get a little older (Presbyopia). Perhaps reading that menu, or the sensation that your arms need to grow longer and longer in order to do so.

What is common is to correct for both near vision and distance vision simultaneously.

This laser eye surgery technique is referred to as Mono-vision.

One eye is corrected for distance vision and the one eye for near-vision. This will leave a person totally free of glasses.

Mono-vision starts making more sense when you are approaching your mid-40’s and starting to become Presbyopic.
Suddenly you notice that you cannot see up close any more.

While considering Mono-vision at the Wellington Eye Clinic it is normal to ask our patients to undergo a contact lens trial.
This trial gives the patient an idea of what the result will be after their surgery and affords us the opportunity meet their satisfaction before they make a commitment to have the surgery.
