As we get more and more exposed to technologically advanced lifestyles, our visual demands increase to keep up
with smart phones, laptops, GPS’s and every form of tablet available. All of this can be a real pain in the… eye.
Although the human eye is an amazing data processing system, we may experience difficulty to focus on objects.
The following conditions are the most common to be rectified:
– Myopia (near sighted), no problem, you can see a dust particle, but cannot read the
weather on TV just 3m away
– Hypermetropia (far sighted), those who believe there is no dust, but can spot a leopard in a tree 500
yards away
– Presbiopia (when you need to stretch the arms to read), your mature age barometer
– Astigmatism (cannot focus properly at any distance). Sorry people, you miss all the action.
At Vision Optometrists we aim to provide clear sharp vision at any distance and hence we introduce products to
aid the wearer to experience absolute visual comfort throughout the day, whatever their visual demands. Like most
consumables on the market, prescription lenses do have generic choices. Most lenses will assist in correcting your
vision, but to “fine tune” it, will require a careful selection. We all have different requirements and demands, a
choice between lens designs will be made based on your specific needs (correction for far, near or multiple
distances) and resources.
Your vision allows you to experience life in full. Light is essential to vision, and the appropriate quantity of light is
an important determinant of both visual acuity and visual comfort. Too much or too little light can result in eyestrain, squinting, or eye fatigue.
