To the eyes did not hide behind the glasses and contact lenses, you really need not so much. Modern ophthalmology offers a whole complex of techniques aimed at reducing vision without additional optics. The last word of science in this area is definitely laser correction of view.

About how you can get rid of «Minuses» Our eyes, learn from the candidate of medical sciences, the doctor of the highest category, a member of the European and American societies of cataract and refractive surgeons, the famous ophthalmic surgeon George Yakovlevich Parhomenko.
Expand the secrets of their visual system
Initially, pass the comprehensive diagnosis of view. During the survey, more than 100 tests are carried out, which determine not only deviations in refraction *, but also establish individual eye parameters. These indicators will be needed when the doctor will choose the method of remedial correction suitable for you.
Next, the advice of an ophthalmologist, during which you, at the request of the doctor, will have to recall all its diseases, ranging from blood pressure and ending with allergies and viral diseases. This is not a whim of a doctor, but the need that will further save you from complications. Similar conversation «heart-to-heart» It will help the doctor to pick up the most effective and sparing path to recovery, as well as to decide on the method of vision correction.
The most common method of restoring vision today is laser correction. The most progressive methods for its holding include Lasik, Lasik and Super Lasik. Their essence consists in laser evaporation of the strata of the cornea based on the program «Computer recharge». This allows you to change the refraction of light in the eye, focus it directly on the retina and get a clear image of objects at different distances. The results of laser correction are predictable and stable.
For most people laser correction – it's rather a cosmetic procedure. 90% of patients resorting to her, – people who were tired of messing with glasses and contact lenses or simply not able to use them.
There is a whole list of professions, where weak vision is simply impossible to work, and the more impossible wearing glasses or lenses. However, laser correction has its limitations. For example, it is not used in myopia over 8 diopters or hyperopias Over 4 diopters. The excess of these limits will lead to a tangible reduction in the quality of vision and return everything «Over the circles». It is also not recommended for children under 18. Although there are rare exceptions to the rules.
- Usually we adhere to the generally accepted contraindications, "says Georgy Parkhomenko," but we have experience when we conducted laser correction to children aged 5 to 15 years. They had a significant difference in visual sharpness between the left and right eye. Children, due to the rolling lifestyle, what is called «Do not be friends» with glasses and contact lenses. While the doctors would have waited for the majority of these children, one eye could have become amubly, that is, the brain would stop perceiving it as an organ of view, and the restoration of vision would be impossible in the future.
Using in such cases an excimer laser, doctors not only save the eyes, but also socially adapt the child, helping him to get rid of the complexes, start free to play sports, get an education.
There are other methods of improving vision. If there are contraindications to the use of a traditional excimer laser, ophthalmologists recommend implantation of fakic ol (artificial lens), effective and reversible operation, or a course of conservative (hardware) treatment and T.D. Fakile lenses are implanted with a significant impairment of vision, when problems with eyes are significantly reflected on the quality of life.
- As I said, Dr. Parhomenko continues, - the procedure is reversible, at any time such lenses can be removed or replaced. For people after 45 years, a refractive replacement of a lens with an implantation of a multifocal lenses is carried out, after which a person sees perfectly and near, and away. All lenses, for example in our clinic, is provided with a warranty of 100 years. It should be noted that modern methods of correction of vision is painless. Operations are carried out in an outpatient basis using high-quality drip anesthesia. On the same day, a person will be able to return home and lead the familiar way of life.
* Refraction (from Lat. REFRACTIO — refraction) — refraction of the light beam.
