ReSTOR®

Dallas, Texas

Are your vision issues holding you back from experiencing everything life has to offer? Does poor vision keep you from nighttime driving or pursuing your favorite hobbies? At The Carter Eye Center in Dallas, Texas, Dr. Harvey Carter is a leading LASIK surgeon who has devoted his practice to providing patients with the very latest, most progressive vision treatments, both surgical and non-surgical.

Many patients who come to see Dr. Carter about their vision problems soon learn they suffer from cataracts. Cataracts cloud your vision and your life by making it more difficult to see clearly and sharply. Cataract surgery is the recommended treatment. However, cataract surgery with a traditional replacement lens may not sharpen both your near and far vision.

Fortunately, there is a solution to cataracts and another common problem related to aging vision, presbyopia. That solution is the AcrySof® ReSTOR® intraocular lens (IOL), a revolutionary vision care technology that, for many patients, restores both near and far vision. In fact, many ReSTOR® patients say they see more clearly than ever before.

ReSTOR® lenses combine the safety of traditional cataract surgery with the successful outcomes of cutting-edge technology. Without glasses or even bifocals, cataract patients enjoy this life-changing vision restoration that completely changes the way they see the world.

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed, and one of the safest, surgeries in the United States. The surgery itself has not changed much, but the technology has vastly improved over time, and the ReSTOR® lens is proof, with its patented material developed specifically for use in lens replacement. In the past, cataract patients opting for lens replacement were still dependent on reading glasses or bifocals after surgery. But with ReSTOR®, you can read fine print without reading glasses or bifocals, and can also see very well at far distances.

A study conducted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shows that four out of five ReSTOR® patients no longer require glasses after surgery.

Other benefits include:

• Full vision near and far
• The capacity to read small print quickly and easily
• Better vision even in  dim lighting

If the AcrySof® ReSTOR® lens sounds right for you, please schedule a consultation at The Carter Eye Center in Dallas, Texas. A thorough vision evaluation will be performed to ensure you are a good candidate for the ReSTOR® procedure. You can have all your questions answered and discuss potential complications and the level of vision improvement you can expect. It is a big world out there. Isn’t it time to see what you are missing?
