What prescription can Laser Eye Surgery correct?
When you go in for an eye exam at the opticians, the main thing you come out knowing is whether or not you need to wear glasses. But they also might mention a bit about exactly why you need glasses. With your little prescription card in your hand, they’ll explain how you have shortsightedness, longsightedness, astigmatism, or maybe a mixture of the above. Aside from that, there’s not much else you need to know. But if you’re not too keen on a lifetime of glasses or… Read more
Is it worth getting Laser Eye Surgery?
There’s no shortage of reasons why someone might want to have Laser Eye Surgery. Some of them are incredibly deep and meaningful: A guy who’s having his second child and wants to be able to help roll or wake up in the middle of the night without worrying about finding his glasses. But most reasons are pretty mundane and simple: Just being able to wake up in the morning and not have to search the house or vulnerably edge your way across the landing… Read more

Is there a prescription limit for Laser Eye Surgery?
You would think the numbers on your little prescription card determine whether or not you’re eligible for Laser Eye Surgery. This is the general idea many people have about being a suitable candidate for Laser Eye Surgery. But the reality is, determining eligibility is a lot more involved than that. This goes to say that if you find yourself thinking your prescription isn’t treatable and that you’re outside of the general limits for Laser Eye Surgery, don’t fret. Chances are there are… Read more

As seen on TED [Video]
In 1948, Spanish ophthalmologist Jose Ignacio Barraquer Moner was fed up with relying on external aids to see well. He wanted a solution for blurry vision that would fix the eye itself, without the need of wearing glasses. The answer he came up with was something called “keratomileusis”, a surgical technique that alters vision by reshaping the cornea. And the rest is history. Today, we know this procedure as LASIK, a treatment for everything from shortsightedness and longsightedness to astigmatism and presbyopia.… Read more

What is the most advanced Laser Eye Surgery?
You know when you buy a new car, upgrade your phone, or get a new washing machine, that you typically want the most advanced version available. You know advanced here is a good thing, because it means greater performance and all-round better experience. But what does advanced mean in the world of Laser Eye Surgery? And does it even matter? As Laser Eye Surgery is a technological procedure, the short answer is absolutely. But even its earliest treatments look advanced compared to… Read more

NEW: Life after Lasik
Unlike wearing glasses, there’s nothing obvious that gives away that you’ve had Laser Eye Surgery. Unless someone knows you beforehand, it can just appear like you’ve had perfect vision all along. So what happens to these millions of people who simply blend into the background after having Laser Eye Surgery? Are they just going about their normal day-to-day lives? Does the novelty of clear vision wear off after a few months and nothing really change? Or are they living it up and… Read more

Fireworks & bonfires: Do take care
Fireworks are delightful inventions that bring fun and enjoyment to everyone (except maybe dogs and old people). But they’re also small dangerous missiles packed with gunpowder that fire ‘payloads’ at hundreds of miles an hour into the sky to explode in a (hopefully) controlled and artistic way. Without sounding like too much of a party pooper, it’s the same story for bonfires. Despite the fact that for millennia they’ve kept us warm and provided us with a focal point for getting together,… Read more

5 Natural Beauty Tips for Vibrant and Healthy Eyes
We have witnessed a ton of health and beauty trends over the past few years, from Korean skincare routines, ‘virtual try-ons’ in store, to unbundling the spa and salon take-homes. And like most years, many of those trends were much stranger than they were beautifying. Smudged lipstick to achieve that ‘just-kissed’ look. Jade rollers, a jade paint-roller type tool, to ‘rejuvenate’ your face and neck. And bleached eyebrows to, well, make you look super creepy, to name just a few. As usual,… Read more
