  • ABSTRACT: This article describes non-linear corneal aspheric ablation profiles combined with micro-monovision to treat presbyopia in emmetropic, myopic and hyperopic patients.

    The ablation profile is the Laser Blended Vision module of the CRS Master software. The outcomes presented here are for a series of consecutive presbyopic patients treated with LASIK between August 1, 2003 and March 11, 2008 at the London Vision Clinic. All treatments were performed as bilateral simultaneous LASIK by a single surgeon. The results using the Laser Blended Vision showed that it was a well tolerated, safe and effective procedure for the treatment of presbyopia in myopia up to –8.50 D, hyperopia up to +5.75 D and emmetropia. We found the Laser Blended Vision protocol using the MEL80 and CRS Master was a well tolerated, highly effective and safe procedure for treating patients with presbyopia in moderate to high myopia, moderate to high hyperopia and emmetropia.
