Mumbai based Doctor Eye Institute has introduced a unique LASIK (laser) technology for the first time in Asia – PresbyMAX Software to remove dependence on glasses after the age of 40.

This technology uses 500 Hz AMARIS Laser ? Fastest Laser on Earth with Finest Accuracy to perform LASIK (removal of dependence on glasses)

It is perfectly natural for eyesight to weaken around middle age. Around this time in life a condition known as Presbyopia sets in. Presbyopia is simply the progressive hardening of your eye?s lenses over time and what follows is a loss of ability for your eyes to make rapid changes in focus, known as accommodation. Therefore person faces difficulty in reading.

Dr. Kumar Doctor (Medical Director of Doctor Eye institute) says, ?For the first time in Asia, with our PresbyMAX software, people now have the option of getting rid of dependency on reading glasses after 40?

LASIK surgery is performed under anesthetic eye drops. No injection is necessary and it is a painless, patchless short procedure. Both eyes can be treated same time. It assures quick vision restoration. Dr Eye Institute routinely uses wave front guided treatment for best visual outcome and quality of vision at night.

With this method, near vision of presbyopic patients (above 40 years) even with additional visual defects (+, – or cylindrical) is significantly improved and a clear vision without spectacles becomes possible. Also patients with lens implant in their eyes, (Pseudophakic) who have undergone cataract operation a long time back can also get rid of dependence on reading and distant glasses with PresbyMAX.

Dr. Kumar is the FIRST Surgeon in the WORLD to successfully perform Presbyopic LASIK on Pseudophakic patients with brilliant results. He has also received a Certificate in this regards from Rolf Schwind, the CEO of Schwind Eyetech Germany congratulating him on the successful outcome.
