5 CONTEMPLATING PI AND CONSULTATION
As one’s eyes tend to worsen the possibility of wearing contacts or
glasses is often considered. They can be very vexing, costly, and
ineffective. In previous generations the freedom to permanently
correct poor vision was not an option. Now through modern science
we have Lasik and more recently the advanced procedure Prelex. It
can prevent the aging eyes from worsening, correct vision problems,
and allow for clear vision without the hassle of glasses and contacts.
The Prelex procedure is aimed at people forty-five and over age
group. This unique procedure allows for one to see at all distances in
both eyes. This is not monovision. In monovision one eye sees far
and the other sees near, whereas in Prelex both eye sees near and far.
It is better than Lasik for people above forty-five as it preserves
binocular vision and depth of field. It will last a lifetime and prevents
the development of cataracts.
Undergoing the Prelex procedure can save money on contact lens
replacements, glasses, and constant eye exams. It can also save
enormous costs on cataract surgery that will likely be needed in the
future.
Prelex of course is a lifestyle choice. No one can force a person to
adopt this. One must consider all available options and advantages
and disadvantages.
