Description:
Dr. Stuart Sondheimer is one of the most experienced lasik laser vision correction and cataract surgeons in the chicago area. Is eyewear a handicap in sports activities such as jogging, golf, basketball or tennis? He has helped countless patients reduce their dependence on, or completely eliminate, glasses and/or contact lenses.
Whatever the reason, thousands upon thousands of people choose to experience life without glasses or contact lenses. Many of his lasik and cataract patients enjoy excellent vision at near and far without the need for corrective lenses.
Refractive errors (conditions for which glasses/contacts are prescribed), typically fall into four main categories: 1.) nearsightedness; 2.) farsightedness; 3.) astigmatism; and 4.) presbyopia. Simply stated, during lasik, the excimer laser is used to reshape the cornea of the eye to a more normal shape and thus diminish refractive area. With cataract surgery the cloudy human lens is replaced with a lens that will often correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and the need for reading glasses.
