Freedom From Reading Glasses at Every Distance

blended vision for reading

From ยฃ2,500 per eye ยท complimentary assessment

Blended Vision laser eye surgery reshapes each eye for a unique role, one for distance, one for near, creating seamless sight across all ranges. Itโ€™s a life-changing solution for patients with age-related presbyopia.

What is blended vision (Monovision) laser surgery?

Blended Vision is a laser correction technique for presbyopia, the age-related decline in near vision. It subtly adjusts the focus of each eye: one is optimised for distance, while the other is fine-tuned for near tasks. Unlike traditional monovision, Blended Vision enhances the depth of field in both eyes, allowing the brain to merge the two images for a full range of focusโ€”near, intermediate, and far.

This treatment can be performed using LASIK or TransPRK, depending on your eye surface and corneal thickness. Our specialists will recommend the best method during your in-depth consultation.

Is your near vision holding you back?

Presbyopia can impact daily lifeโ€”but Blended Vision may be the solution. You might relate if you:

Hold reading material at armโ€™s length to focus

Struggle to read menus, books, or your phone clearly

Constantly switch between glasses for different tasks

Feel frustrated by the need for reading glasses

Want a single, seamless visual solution for near and far

Blended vision is ideal for patients over 40 with presbyopia and healthy eyes.

Ineligible for laser? Consider ICL surgery

Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICLs) are an advanced alternative for patients who arenโ€™t suitable for laser procedures due to high prescriptions or thin corneas. ICLs are soft, biocompatible lenses placed between the iris and your natural lens, correcting vision without reshaping the cornea. This minimally invasive, reversible treatment offers crisp, high-definition vision and is especially effective for high myopiaโ€”even up to -20 diopters. With fast recovery and long-term comfort, ICL surgery is a powerful option for those seeking safe, lasting results.
