| IOL's and protein deposits | 30 Sep 2008 17:52 GMT | 1 |
A friend of mine said that lenses implanted during cataract surgery have had a history of problems with getting cloudy over time due to protein buildup on the lenses. Is this still a problem with modern IOL materials? Do implanted lenses have the same problem with protein

On Easter 2006, May 2008 and July 2008, I experienced, in both eyes equally, a dimming of vision to blackness and then a return to normal. It was like someone was turning a light dimmer switch to off and then back to full brightness. Each time, the event was over in about 30

| How Many? | 21 Sep 2008 01:29 GMT | 22 |
It's a well established fact that a respectable woman cannot appear in public twice wearing the same outfit. Men, of course, can. But is there an obligation for a woman who happened to wear glasses to have a different pair with a different frame for every public appearance?

I had an el-cheapo Anti-reflective coating that was destroyed after about 6 months and exchanged the lenses for a set without AR. I was careful about cleaning - use a microfiber cloth, wash them first and the coating came off anyway. Thankfully I had warranty.

Although I haven't had any luck in the past, I'm going to give contacts another shot. My problem stems from very dry eyes. I was told that some of the newer silicon contacts should be more helpful but I'm wondering if they are available in toric.

When you get an exam for glasses, does the test give the doctor one number for near vision, and one number for far vision? If so, how does the doctor then decide what to write for Cylinder, if the two are different?

| cataracts, night vision & "night glasses" | 02 Sep 2008 06:05 GMT | 6 |
I'll be having cataract surgery & have read info on cataracts & its effect on limiting night vision. Wondering if the yellow tinted "night driving glasses" will help with night driving. I guess the night driving glasses may cut down glare but have doubts

I'm a confused mom at the moment. A year ago, my then 5 year old child had his eyes tested (by a clinical ophthalmologist who I feel did a thorough exam) and I was told he was borderline for needing glasses, but if he wasn't manifesting any problems
