Design
The LasikNear is the first and only post refractive surgery multifocal on the market today.
Manufactured in any material, however, recommended in higher index materials.
Reverse Geometry back surface to fit ablated corneas, with high eccentric front surface to accommodate great intermediate and near vision.
Candidates
Any patient who has had LASIK, RK, Corneal Transplant or corneal trauma.
A patient that has presbyopic needs.
Combine the two modalities, and there is the LasikNear.
Fitting
The Fitting process of this lens is simple, obtain a 14 lens trial kit, and start on "Median k".
-OR-
Use the topography to determine the 4mm off center k reading, use that as a starting point for the diagnostic lens.
Once an optimal fit is achieved, over-refract the patient for distance, keeping the lenticular cylinder out of the equation if possible.
Use trial frame glasses and a realistic near card to deduce the acceptability of the near vision.
