experience some kind of presbyopia, a condition coined from the Greek words by old view. As the eyes age, the lenses inside them naturally harden and lose their flexibility, which makes them less able to focus light directly on the retina. This actually makes it harder to see up close or even far away, so
you need reading glasses or bifocals. Presbyopia tends to get worse over the years. You may find that you should upgrade your glasses to stronger and stronger recipes. However, it may be possible to eliminate the need for glasses. There are some surgical procedures that can correct sight fading and
help men lose their dependence on glasses, says Dr. Kathryn Hatch, an ophthalmologist at Harvard Medical School. This can give men greater independence to live a more active lifestyle and can be quite liberating, especially for those who have worn glasses for decades of their lives. The lowdown
LASIK When you think of corrective eye surgery, LASIK (laser-assisted keratomileusis in situ) comes to mind. The popular procedure uses a laser to reshape the cornea (the transparent frontal cover of the eye) so that it works best with the lens of the eye to focus the light entering the retina. Although
traditional LASIK cannot change the effects of an aging lens, some people may benefit from a procedure called LASIK monovision. With monovision, only the most dominant eye is corrected through LASIK surgery. This allows one eye to see up close and one to see far away, and together they can
sharpen their vision at both distances. However, the LASIK monovision has its drawbacks. It may not offer the same clarity as reading glasses, and could reduce your perception of depth. That's why doctors often first adjust to patients with single-vision contact lenses to see how they tolerate it, says Dr
Hatch. A good thing to try this test: If you're comfortable with contact lenses, you don't need corrective surgery, says Dr Hatch. There are also two variations in the contact lens approach: mini-monovision and monovision With mini-monovision, used for people who do not do regular foreground or reading
work, the lens in the less dominant eye is weaker than optimal for remote vision. With modified monovision, it brings a single vision contact lens for the eye away and a bifocal contact lens for the eye up close. All the more men must obtain an annual eye examination, according to the American Optometric
Association. In addition to checking your vision, doc-tor can look for eye problems and diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, dry eye and retinal detachment. Regular eye examinations are also essential for people who suffer from high blood pressure or diabetes or
who have had eye surgery. Replacement of your lens Another procedure is lens replacement surgery (LRS). LRS replaces the inner lens of the eye with a high-tech multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implant. There are three types of IOLs: fixed-focus monofocal lenses provide clear vision in one of the three
levels of adjustment –distance, intermediate or close approach- depending on your specific need. Multifocal lenses help you see at multiple distances. Hosting lenses, a type of monofocal lens, flex as a natural lens to provide a continuous range of focus. LRS is often used to treat cataracts, a condition in
which the lens of the eye becomes cloudy with age. If you do not have cataracts, the procedure prevents them, as your natural lens is replaced by a synthetic implant that never clouds. LRS works like this: the eye surgeon numbs the eye and then uses a laser to make precise incisions in the cornea. Then
he or she makes a circular opening in the capsule containing the lens. The surgeon then uses the laser to break the lens into small segments and removes those with an ultrasonic probe. Finally, the surgeon implants the new replacement lens in the capsule. The outpatient procedure takes between 15
and 20 minutes per eye, and the eyes are often treated about two weeks apart. Patients see immediately after surgery, and their eyes feel normal after a day. LRS may not be appropriate for people who are only nearby or who have worn glasses most of their adult lives, says Dr Hatch. The reason: a
nearby eye has a thinner and more delicate retina, which can be torn more easily or detached during or after surgery. It is important to note that both the LASIK and LRS monovision and are considered elective procedures and are generally not covered by most health insurance plans. The cost for the
LASIK monovision can range from about $2,000 per eye, on average. LRS can cost more than $5,000 per eye depending on the situation and what technologies are used. (If you have cataracts, your insurance can cover part of the LRS procedure, but consult with your provider.) Talk to your doctor about
your options. If you feel loaded with glasses, these procedures can help you see your life in a completely new way.

undergoing retinal detachment surgery following an accident with her son Charley, 3, last month. The TODAY anchor had the surgery on Wednesday and later shared a photo of herself and Charley after the procedure. Savannah, seen here with Charley, is recovering after undergoing surgery on a
separate retina. Savannah GuthrieS like this is how Savannah should stay. When you have this type of surgery, you kind of have to be immobile, said Hoda Kotb on Thursday today. That's how it's going to be for the next little bit. Hoda and Craig Melvin also said Charley and her daughter Vale, 5, are
doing their best to make sure their mother has a speedy recovery. Savannah Guthrie explains the treatment she underwent for her torn retinaDec. 2, 201904:072 Two small nurses taking care of her, Craig said. And apparently Vale is singing songs, too. On Wednesday night, Savannah posted an update
on her Instagram page along with a photo of a note Vale wrote. This is my message outside the office, underlined the photo, which said: No one can get into my moms room. Savannah also explained what happened and made sure to thank her husband, Michael Feldman. It turns out I had to have surgery
today because I had a massive tear in my retina and retinal detachment, she added. I'm at home resting for a while. Very grateful to my doctors, prayers from good friends and my husband @feldmike who has woken up like a superhero. Savannah's eye injury occurred last month when Charley
accidentally punched her in the eye with a toy train while sitting on her lap. He missed two days on TODAY and underwent multiple laser treatments to avoid surgery, but ultimately went under the knife. Savannah Guthrie explains how her eye was injured (by her son Charley!) November 27,
201906:04Aven though she had vision problems, Savannah still served as co-host of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Vision is improving every day, but I'm still blurred, savannah said on December 3 on TODAY. Right now it's like having a contact (slow) on and (one) out. When it started though, it
was like a complete blur. I couldn't have seen anything. Essentially they are trying to weld back this tear into the retina very carefully, and really trying to prevent retinal detachment and avoid having to do major surgery. Soon, Savannah!

glasses or contacts? LASIK laser surgery can be an option. Take our quiz to see if you're a good Lasik candidate. Do you want to know more about the procedure? Read our quick guide to LASIK eye surgery and see video of the LASIK procedure. What are the typical risks, complications and results? We
also have these questions answered. Our LASIK surgery cost guide, updated twice a year, includes the cost of LASIK and follow-up care. We even have some tips to help you find the best LASIK LASIK surgeons You. What is LASIK? LASIK is a surgical procedure that uses a laser to correct myopia,
myopia and/or astigmatism. In LASIK, a thin flap in the cornea is created using a microkeratoma blade or a femtosecond laser. The surgeon folds the flap again, then removes some corneal tissue underneath using an excimer laser. The flap is placed back in place, covering the area where the corneal
tissue was removed. With people nearby, LASIK's goal is to flatten the cornea too steep; with people seen, you want a more pronounced cornea. LASIK can also correct astigmatism by softening an irregular cornea in a more normal form. If you are considering LASIK eye surgery, your first step is to
choose a good LASIK surgeon who can evaluate whether LASIK is right for you. Your SURGEON LASIK will examine your eyes to determine your health, what kind of vision correction you need, and how much laser ablation (corneal tissue removal) is required. The doctor will also ask you about the
health conditions that can completely disqualify you for LASIK surgery. If you are not a candidate for LASIK, you can qualify for other laser eye surgery such as PRK (similar to LASIK, but without the flap), LASEK, or epi-LASIK. There are also non-laser vision correction procedures. Your prescription and
eye structure will be considered to help determine which procedure is best for you. LASIK is an outpatient procedure, so you don't have to stay in the surgery center overnight. The LASIK surgeon uses a computer to adjust the laser for his particular prescription. You will be asked to look at a target light for
a short time, while the laser sends pulses of light to painlessly reshape your cornea. Actual LASIK surgery usually takes less than five minutes. Minutes.
