                            development of glaucoma, which is caused by a thick lens pushing on
                            the exit channels of the eye. Prelex will not prevent development of
                            macular degeneration nor retinal detachment.

                               Will my prescription still change?

                               The  prescription  often  fluctuates  as  the  lens  absorbs  water  and
                            undergoes  degenerative  processes.  This  is  more  common  after  45.
                            Therefore every year vision deteriorates. After Prelex, vision is stable
                            because Pi does not absorb water nor does it change in size.

                               Am I too old to have Pi in eye?

                               One is never too old to fall in love or have pi in the eye. Age is
                            but a number. People as old as ninety have loved the improved vision
                            with Pi. Their testimonies are poignant human interest stories. They
                            were  grateful  for  the  benefit  of  being  able  to  renew  their  driving
                            license.  One,  who  was  hunched  from  back  problems,  had  had
                            difficulty in seeing with glasses as his eyes faced down and he had to
                            look obliquely causing aberrations. Pi in eye gave him freedom to live
                            alone and defer assisted living.

                               What if I have Parkinson’s or other movement disorders?

                               Trembling  hands  and  movement  disorders  make  it  difficult  to
                            wear  contacts  or  even  glasses.  Pi  in  the  eye  helps  people  with
                            Parkinsonism, with head throbbing movements or even shaky eyes.

                               Is Alzheimer’s a problem with Pi?

                               People  who  have  memory  problems  can  forget  where  they  put
                            their  glasses  or  that  they  even  wear  glasses.  Pi  in  eye  is  especially
                            helpful for them.

                               Who should not have Pi or Prelex?

                               Patients   suffering   from   advanced   diabetic   retinopathy,   wet
                            macular degeneration, end stages of glaucoma or optic nerve damage
                            are not suitable for this procedure.
