Griffin & Reed Eye Care Vision Information

Men and women who’ve had perfect distance and near vision their whole life, or who’ve had LASIK in the past, are accustomed to clear, crisp vision.

The KAMRA™ Inlay is an extremely thin lens implant that is inserted into your non-dominant eye to restore your near vision while maintaining your distance vision. Learn more from our eye...

Sometimes, we have patients come in with minor cataract problems, which haven’t progressed enough to cause vision loss and don’t qualify for cataract surgery based on Medicare guidelines. In these instances, we typically recommend doing a refractive lens exchange. Refractive lens exchange involves replacing your natural eye lens with a multifocal implant, which corrects vision like LASIK and prevents the need for cataract surgery later on...

There is a risk of infection involved in any form of surgery, even cataract surgery. Our eye surgeons decrease this risk by having our patients begin taking antibiotics prior to eye surgery, and we also have our at-risk patients start anti-inflammatory medications beforehand. We make sure your eye is in good health through a dilated eye exam before scheduling your procedure. Learn more about the potential risks of cataract surgery...

LASIK follow-up appointments are essential to keep track of your results and help us make sure our patients continue to achieve exceptional vision correction. At a minimum, we collect data from your one-day, one-week, one-month and one-year visits to make sure our programming and equipment are providing the best outcomes possible. Learn more about LASIK and data collection in the video above.
