A synthetic solution for clearer vision
When most people think of surgical vision correction, the procedure that first comes to mind is LASIK eye surgery. While LASIK is an extremely effective treatment for many, it is not a universal solution. Patients who suffer from presbyopia, those with high degrees of hyperopia or myopia, patients with cataracts, or those with certain irregularities of the eye may not be suitable candidates for LASIK. Fortunately, intraocular lenses placed by our Chicago area surgeons offer an effective alternative treatment. To learn more about how you can benefit from intraocular lenses, please contact us at one of our convenient locations in Chicago, Highland Park, Crystal Lake, or Hoffman Estates.
Cataracts occur when the natural crystalline lens within the eye becomes cloudy or discolored, making a patient’s vision hazy or blurred. While cataracts can occur in patients of any age, they are most likely to occur in patients over the age of 60. We offer laser cataract surgery to break up and remove the clouded lens and replace it with an intraocular lens (IOL) that restores clear vision.
Medicare now allows greater access to advanced technology lens implants. A Medicare ruling on lens implants allows beneficiaries to upgrade to the full range of vision and greater spectacle independence provided by advanced technology lenses. This means the traditional costs associated with cataract treatment are covered by Medicare, with patients having the option to pay additional charges associated with receiving a premium lens.
