I'm considering vitrectomy surgery for macular pucker and am
interested in other people's experiences with this type of procedure.
Would appreciate any helpful advice. Thanks!

My brother claims he has Trivex lenses that are sun sensitive.  They are
sun sensitive but I can find no information the Trivex lenses can be
made as such.  How is this done.  Is it a a composite lense with Trivex
and Photo-Sensitive lense?

Can anybody tell me the Rx required to bring 20/60 visual acuity to
20/20?
Can anybody provide the formula for such translation?

I looked into a couple years ago and it only lasted a few years and then
slowly faded back to the way it was before.  That seemed much worse than
doing nothing.
Now my eye doctor tells me it has improved and is permanent.  He doesn't do

Am scheduled for surgery next week - have astigmatism and myopia and
granular cataract both eyes.  Doing right first - as have had retinal
detachment in left and so right safer.  Am right eye dominant and left

These days it seems like doctors prefer to prescribe progressive
lenses instead of bifocals or trifocals. Why is that?
Also, do optometrists adjust or change the cylinder power so that the
add power for each eye can be the same? If so, wouldn't that mess up

My daughter, who just turned 4, went in for another follow up. I am happy to
say that she was seeing a whole line better on the vision chart. She saw
20/40 with the left eye(and a little on the 20/30 line) and 20/50
consistantly with the right. Her perscription has not changed. She ...

I am applying for a job where my unaided visual acuity needs to be
6/36 in my left eye and 6/24 in my right eye.  I know I have no
problem reading to 6/36 but I am concerned that I will not be able to
read to 6/24 (third line down on a British chart) unless have a small

If I have had IOL's in each eye and supposedly they are almost perfect
-.25 & +.25 then why are my reading glasses +1.75 and +3.25?

Just looking for some friendly pointers, advice, etc.
Several years ago, my right eye had a retinal detachment, followed
with the customary procedures (silicon oil, scleral buckling, etc).
In parallel, I noticed changes in my memory and attention but did not

I've been thinking of going on a camping/backpacking trip of maybe
three days.  I typically do dayhikes, where I can find a place at the
end of the day with a safe drinking water supply that I can use to
wash my hands.  I would prefer not to sleep in my lenses (Acuvue 2 or

Living in London now I notice that there are so many people with glasses with
a low prescription. It is surprising to me although I understand the fashion
is now for glasses. As professionals how do you like the trend - do you think

Diego.
