ReSTOR®

The AcrySof® ReStor® intraocular lens (IOL) is a cutting-edge vision correction technology that is implanted into patients' eyes to correct both near and far-sighted problems. Most of these problems are created by either cataracts or presbyopia, an ailment related to aging.

When patients undergo ReSTOR® and are fully healed, many say their eyesight is better than they ever thought possible. Basically, ReStor® lenses are the ideal combination of the benefits of time-tested cataract surgery and the advantages of leading-edge vision correction technology.

Many people who previously had poor vision don’t even need bifocals after surgery.

According to the Food and Drug Administration, four out of five ReSTOR® patients go completely free of the need to wear any type of correction. Other benefits people enjoy are the ability to read fine print effortlessly as well as seeing better in poor lighting conditions.

The AcrySof® ReSTOR® IOL is one of the many alternatives available to create the best vision correction for you. At the Carter Eye Center in Dallas, Texas , Dr. Harvey Carter and his team are well-trained in all of the latest procedures including this one. Besides ReSTOR®, many different options exist and one will be the perfect one for you. Please contact us today.
