Because more than 90 percent of the population over age 40 will typically develop presbyopia (the need for reading glasses), this is a major concern for baby boomers. In comparison, 30 percent of the population has some type of refractive error - nearsightedness, farsightedness and/or astigmatism - that is treatable with LASIK surgery.

Wavefront-guided LASIK cannot cure presbyopia. Our only solution as LASIK surgeons is to correct one eye for distance and the other for near - also called monovision. However, some individuals can tolerate this, and others may choose to have their eyes corrected solely for their best distance vision based on their lifestyles.
