See clearly again; up close, far away and everywhere in between, without glasses or contact lenses.
Over time, the eyes natural lens becomes hardened and prevents it from focusing as it once did. This inability to focus, or accomodate, is called presbyopia and its earliest symptom is difficulty seeing things that are close up. Until now, the only solution was reading glasses. Dr. Akler, at the Castleman Eye Center, offers the Crystalens® which reduces or eliminates dependence on corrective lenses for both distance and near vision.
What is Crystalens®?
Crystalens® is an implanted replacement lens that works naturally with the eye's focusing muscle to rejuvinate the vision to a youthful state. It turns back time by mimicking the eye's natural process of focusing up close, far away and everywhere in between.
