I Have Tried Monovision Contacts; Does PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision Have The Same Effects?
Mr Glenn Carp – “PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision is a superior approach to conventional monovision. In monovision only 60% of people given enough time, six months for example, will eventually tolerate having a difference in the eyes and the reason for this is quite simple. The focal points in monovision are very, very small. In other words the distance eye is only good for distance and the near eye only good for near. There is a gap between the two and that often leaves the patient feeling very uncomfortable. In blended vision we are able to increase the depth of field for each eye respectively to give the distance side distance vision and intermediate and the near eye near and intermediate, so that there is no gap between the eyes and therefore it is much better tolerated. 98% of people will tolerate blended vision over a six month period in comparison to the 60% that will only tolerate monovision.”
Monovision Contacts And PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision Explained Further…
PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision is not to be confused with traditional monovision – a practice in which the contact lenses are set with one eye for near and one eye for distance. The difference with the PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision technique is that the PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision near eye sees much better at distance than the near eye set with traditional monovision, similarly the PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision distance eye sees more up close than the distance eye with traditional monovision. Because PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision is milder than monovision, far more people are able to adapt to it than to monovision. Approximately 95% of people are candidates for PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision as compared to about 50% for traditional monovision.

I had no issues with wearing lenses, and was therefore a little apprehensive about lasik blended vision to correct my myopia/presbyopia. Having had the procedure done, it was worth every penny. I’m lens free, and well adjusted after only one month post procedure. Thank you Dan et al!!
