Monovision LASIK & PRK
William Shatner on His Monovision LASIK Experience
"I had been using contact lenses for monovision, but wasn’t sure about making it permanent.
After a comprehensive evaluation and seeing the results for myself, I realized it was the right choice.
The procedure was painless, and the entire experience was remarkably smooth. I’m very happy with the outcome.”
— William Shatner
The Monovision Laser Eye Surgery Process
How It Works
Monovision laser surgery corrects one eye for distance and the other for near vision. Your brain naturally adjusts, allowing you to see clearly at all distances without consciously switching between eyes.
What to Expect
Your doctor will simulate monovision in-office using special lenses so you can experience the results beforehand. You may also try contact lenses for a few days to ensure you’re comfortable with the adjustment.
Is It Right for You?
Patients under 45 typically don’t need reading glasses after surgery. Those over 45 may still need them unless choosing monovision or exploring alternatives like lens replacement surgery. Your surgeon will help determine the best option based on your lifestyle and vision goals.
