Laser Blended Vision

Laser Blended Vision (pronunciation: /ˈleɪzər ˈblɛndɪd ˈvɪʒən/) is a sophisticated method of Presbyopia treatment that uses Laser Eye Surgery to adjust and improve the range of vision.

Etymology

The term "Laser Blended Vision" is derived from the English words "laser", "blended", and "vision". "Laser" is an acronym for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation". "Blended" refers to the combination or mixture of two things, in this case, the near and distance vision. "Vision" refers to the ability to see.

Definition

Laser Blended Vision is a treatment method that uses laser technology to correct the vision of patients suffering from presbyopia. This method involves adjusting one eye, typically the dominant one, for distance vision and the other eye for near vision. The brain then combines the two images to create a 'blend zone', which allows the patient to see clearly at all distances.
