When you open your eyes in the morning, they are flooded with light. As the light enters your eye, the lens focuses the light on the retina, creating the images that you see all around you. When the eye is marred by an abnormality, known as a refractive error, light cannot focus correctly and you experience blurry vision or eyestrain.
Myopia. Also known as nearsightedness, myopia is a condition that comes about when the eyeball is longer than usual. This causes light to come to focus at a point in front of the retina, rather than on it. As a result, you perceive far-off objects as blurry and can more easily make out nearby objects. To compensate for myopia, it is often necessary to wear corrective glasses or contact lenses.
Hyperopia: Also known as farsightedness, hyperopia happens when the eyeball is too short, causing light to focus at a point behind the retina. People with hyperopia can see far-off objects clearly, but have trouble focusing on nearby objects. Hyperopia is common in children, most of whom will outgrow the condition.
Astigmatism. This common vision disorder is caused by a defect in the cornea, the transparent tissue that covers the eye, and it results in blurred eyesight. People with astigmatism may experience headaches, fatigue, and eyestrain. In many cases, glasses or contacts are sufficient to correct astigmatism; in some cases, however, corrective LASIK eye surgery may be necessary.
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms of these conditions, consult a qualified optometrist or ophthalmologist as soon as possible. An experienced vision professional can help you find the right solution to your condition, whether it be contacts, eyeglasses, or LASIK eye surgery.

I had Lasik about 3 weeks ago - LOVE IT!! AMAZING! Very professional office, a hand holder during the surgery (thanks Abril!), personal call from Dr. Knowles the night of my surgery, from the reception desk to the surgery room - perfection. Thank you all! This is something else - no glasses or contacts - love it!

During the aging process, vision will typically decline in two major ways. First, eyes tend to gradually become less able to focus on objects nearby due to inability of the eye muscles to accommodate. This condition, called presbyopia, is often accompanied by the development of cataracts. Cataracts are characterized by a clouding of the lens that blurs and inhibits proper vision. Fortunately, recent advances in medical technology and knowledge have allowed for the development of an effective treatment that can resolve both of these conditions. Lens implants have the ability to replace a stiff, clouded lens with a clear, state-of-the-art replacement that will often eliminate a patient’s need for reading glasses or bifocals and restore visual acuity.
At Stahl Vision of Dayton, our expert surgeons offer four of the most advanced lens implant options available: The Crystalens® Lens Implant, Tecnis® Multifocal Lens, ReStor® Lens, and ReZoom™ Lens.
· Crystalens® Lens Implant: This intraocular lens (IOL) implant was the first implant to be approved by the FDA. This lens functions similarly to the natural eye by changing shape to focus on nearby objects, helping to reverse the symptoms of presbyopia. This lens provides sharper contrast and less glare at night than other lens implant designs.
· Tecnis® Multifocal Lens: This lens allows for great vision close up, providing a closer nearest point of focus than some other designs. Tecnis® is also a great option for patients looking for a lens that will perform well in dim or bright conditions.
· ReStor® Lens: Similar to the Tecnis® lens, the Restor® IOL is a mutifocal lens that excels at accommodating for near vision.
· ReZoom® Lens: This lens uses zonal optics to restore some of the accommodation, or zooming ability, of the aging eye. Like the ReStor® and Tecnis® lenses, it works well to focus on nearby objects and can perform in dim and bright light.
Lens implants can help to restore the vision. If you are suffering from the symptoms of cataracts or presbyopia, consider scheduling an appointment with the experts at Stahl Vision of Dayton. Call us today at (888) 765-2347.
Thank you for the gift of vision. For the first time in my life, vision in my right eye is far better than in my left eye. See you next year when I get my left eye corrected. Dr. Stahl, you truly use your God-given gifts to make others' lives better. Thank you.
