Freedom from Glasses – A Lifetime Approach

Crisp, comprehensive guidance for spectacle independence across ages, powered by safe, ethical counselling at Saluja Eye Care Center, Indore.

Ages 20–40: Young Adults

Goal: Correct refractive errors safely & maximise long‑term clarity.

Options:

- LASIK / PRK — corneal laser reshaping for myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.
- ICL / Phakic IOLs — for higher powers or thin corneas; additive & reversible.
- Bioptics / Trioptics — combine ICL with laser to fine‑tune extremes or residual cylinder.
- Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) — early lens replacement for select indications after counselling.

Goal: Address both distance and near as the natural lens stiffens (presbyopia).

Options:

Advanced Monovision LASIK/PRK — one eye for near, one for distance (trialled beforehand).
Refractive Lens Exchange — premium IOLs (multifocal, EDOF, toric) tailored to tasks, night driving needs, and ocular surface status.
Combination Strategies — e.g., lens‑based correction plus corneal fine‑tuning.

Power & stability of prescription • Corneal thickness/topography • Pupil size & ocular surface • Retinal health
Occupation, sports, night driving • Tolerance for visual phenomena • Medical history & medications

We use advanced diagnostics and honest, evidence‑based counselling to personalise your plan.

LASIK: Often functional in 24–48 hours; avoid rubbing/swimming initially.
PRK: More discomfort for 2–4 days; functional vision in ~4–7 days with bandage lens.
ICL/Phakic IOL: Quick visual recovery; lens is additive and removable if needed.
RLE/Cataract IOLs: Rapid clarity; reading/contrast outcomes depend on IOL design and eye status.

Goal: Remove cataract, restore clarity, minimise glasses.

Options:

Lifestyle ‘Smart’ Lenses — Multifocal/Trifocal, EDOF, and Toric IOLs for distance ± near and astigmatism.
Monovision Cataract Surgery — for patients who prefer blended vision with minimal spectacles.
Custom plans matched to reading habits, night‑time needs, and profession.

Is ICL reversible?

Yes. The implant is additive and can be removed or exchanged if needed (ICL does not treat presbyopia).

What are ‘smart lenses’?

Premium IOLs (multifocal, trifocal, EDOF, toric) that can reduce dependence on glasses after cataract/RLE.

What is bioptics/trioptics?

A staged approach: ICL (lenticular) handles most power; corneal laser fine‑tunes residual error/astigmatism.

Will I be completely glasses‑free?

Most patients reduce dependence greatly; outcomes depend on eye health, IOL type, and lifestyle—night driving and fine print may still need glasses.
