Distant and near acuity of 20/40 or better in each eye separately with or without corrective lenses and ability to perceive colors necessary for safety.

No problem, we supply goggles for everyone that jumps and they will fit over your glasses or keep your contacts in. Bring an extra pair just in case though.

Yes, the DV920 will fit over most eyeglasses without a problem. Contacts will also function normally. The image appears as if it is at a distance of 11 feet. If you wear bifocals you will need to adjust the DV920 to view the displayed image through the upper (distant) part of your lenses. The DV920 has separate focus adjustments for each eye, so you may find you do not need to wear your glasses while using the DV920.

It's possible you will, but it is not likely, especially if you undergo custom LASIK vision correction. An overwhelming majority - 98 percent - of people who undergo custom LASIK emerge with 20/20 vision or better. However, the overcorrection or undercorrection of your refractive error is always a possibility. This may cause you to wear glasses or contacts, or to return for a touch-up LASIK procedure.

Patients with virtually every degree of nearsightedness are enjoying good outcomes with LASIK. We are able to treat mild to moderate degrees of farsightedness and astigmatism. For more extreme farsightedness, implantable contact lenses may be an option. Our counselor will be happy to discuss this procedure with you during your free evaluation.

Most patients do not wear glasses or contact lenses after LASIK. However for those who need or want to wear glasses or contacts for some occasions (e.g. driving or reading), they can still use them. Many patients are having LASIK because they are unable to wear contacts. LASIK changes the shape of the cornea, but does not change your ability or inability to wear contact lenses. If you had a problem wearing them before surgery, you probably will afterwards too.

If you are over the age of 40 and do not get monovision, you will have to wear reading glasses. Some patients with monovision opt for driving glasses to wear at night time, but usually are free of glasses for their other needs. If your vision is not optimal after LASIK, and an enhancement is not an option, glasses or contacts may be needed to improve your vision.

Data in the Approval Orders and related documents summarizes the outcomes from the clinical trials submitted to the FDA for each approved device. Links to these documents are included on the FDA-APPROVED LASERS page.

It's best to allow a day or so before using your contact lenses following rhinoplasty. It's not uncommon for patients to tell us that giving their eyes a temporary rest from the contact lenses feels good for the first two to three days following rhinoplasty. It's OK to rest your glasses on the nasal cast. However, one week following rhinoplasty the cast is removed. At that time we will show you how to use the Frame-Ups® to prevent your eyewear from resting directly on your nose.

Patients with practically every amount of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism are enjoying great results from the LASIK procedure. A complete examination is needed to determine how much laser vision correction can be achieved.

Absolutely. The vision requirements for a Third Class Medical certificate are 20/40 in each eye, with our without correction. If your vision, glasses or no glasses, is 20/40 or better you meet the vision requirements.

Usually, no. You don’t have a seeing problem, you have an eye muscle problem – that usually can’t be helped by eyeglasses alone.

Compliance with requirements to wear safety glasses used to be a big problem in industry. However, safety glasses have become much more lightweight and stylish, to the point where workers actually want to wear their safety glasses. If you offer a selection of stylish safety glasses, that are appropriate for your work environment, you will find that compliance is no longer a big problem. No, OSHA does not approve safety glasses, or any other personal protective equipment for that matter.

You can buy prescription sunglasses or glasses with photochromic lenses (which change from clear to dark) from your eyecare practitioner. Clip-ons are a less expensive option, and can be bought at the same time as your regular eyeglasses to perfectly match the frames. Magnetic attachments may also be available. Read more about prescription sunglasses and photochromic lenses.

Many swimmers do wear contact lenses under goggles while they swim and enjoy good eyesight, no hassles of handling/storing contacts before and after they swim, and not having to deal with eyeglasses on deck. Pool water can ruin contacts so goggles are a necessity. If the goggles fall off or leak, you may still ruin the lenses. One-day disposable lenses will make the risk of ruining a lens more affordable.

Many people achieve 20/20 vision, or better, after undergoing LASIK eye surgery. Although patients experience an improvement in their vision, some may still need to wear corrective lenses for certain tasks, though the necessary power of correction will be much smaller than before. The result of the LASIK procedure is also influenced by the amount of correction needed.

If you wear glasses, we strongly recommend using some sort of glass strap. We sell a number of types in our retail store (starting at $1.25), you can bring one from home, or even use a shoe lace (not very pretty, but inexpensive and effective). Those with contacts should use precautions similar to if you were going to a pool. If you have trouble with losing contacts in a pool, then you should probably consider going with glasses and a strap instead.

You have three options: (1) wear bifocal contacts in both eyes; (2) wear one contact for distance vision, and one for near vision, this option is called monovision; or (3) wear your distance correction in the contacts, and wear reading glasses when needed.

We can only accept glass bottles and jars in our glass banks because it is recycled into new glass bottles. Any other glass based materials have a different composition and therefore a different melting point, creating imperfections in the new glass bottles.

Glasses and contacts temporarily adjust the eye's refractive power to focus images on the retina while you're wearing them, but don't actually "cure" the underlying problem. Laser vision correction offers a more permanent solution by surgically reshaping your cornea -- the outer layer of your eye, which covers your iris (the colored part) and pupil.

A normal cornea will take light rays that enter the eye and focus them clearly on the retina. When the cornea is irregular in shape, such as being curved too steeply, light rays aren't focused correctly and blurred vision results.

If the patient opts to have only one eye treated at a time, a contact lens maybe needed for the untreated eye until the second eye is done. This can be done in almost all cases, even if you have not been able to tolerate contacts in the past.

Yes. A comprehensive eye exam is designed to uncover any eye disorders, such as focusing problems, dry eyes, glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, retinal problems, diabetic retinopathy or even medical conditions unrelated to the eyes. Due to the way the optic nerves run the length of the brain, there are many aspects of your health that are connected to the eyes.

The issue of the appropriateness or safety of any article of clothing or accessories is left entirely up to the referee. Some referees are strict about potentially dangerous items (such as hard or sharp glasses frames) while other will only enforce the minimum. The referee's ruling is final and should not be challenged.

Since 98% of Custom LASIK patients see 20/20 or better, very few choose to wear glasses again. Those who do, generally use them only in certain circumstances such as driving at night or in the rain. For most people in their 40s, though, whether they have had LASIK or not, reading glasses may be necessary. Providing LASIK eye surgery to the following communities throughout the Bay Area—San Jose, Campbell, Santa Clara,

You cannot wear normal glasses as the glasses will not allow the mask to seal to the face. You can purchase our mask frames and get prescription lenses fitted to them. Contact sales@uksurvive.com for prices as these are not a stock item.
