My Eyhance Experience

After years of agonizing over lens choices and surgeons, I went with Eyhance. The surgeon was basically the one who has the most experience with Eyhance where I live. It was really down to Vivity and Eyhance but ultimately went with Eyhance, partly because of concerns with CS and partly because I could have Eyhance implanted sooner.

I was near sighted before and wanted to be able to read without glasses after the implants but had no problem wearing them for distance, as I was used to them.

Right eye was done about a week ago. Target was -1.1 D. ORA said -1.0 for the same power. It looks like it has ended up close to -1.25. It also corrected my astigmatism of 2.25 to 0. I happy with the quality of vision. Everything is sharp. I can read J1 and even better in good lighting. I may have to go for YAG in this eye in several months though. Couple of more things in case they help others decision: I feel the depth is decent enough to keep the target close to -1 for the near eye for this lens. Any more than that and you may lose more than you may want to on distance. Also, there is a peak but the peak is not sharp and feels a bit broad. However, its drop on the other side is somewhat steeper. I ended up 20/40 in right eye. I think -1 or -1.1 is a good near target for this lens.

Left eye was done yesterday. I wanted first -ve. The target was -.1 which according to ORA was -.2 D. The eye is still healing so too early to say where it would land. I do see some ghosting with this eye. All letters on the eye chart have some ghosting. I hope that changes with healing.

It so hard do make a decision on lens and power choice when you can't experience it first. Although I'm happy with my choice, if I had to do it all over again, I would lean towards binocular whether mono, edof or tri.

Thanks all for your knowledge sharing and support. Its a great virtual community!
