A woman can see without glasses after new technology improved her vision following cataract surgery.
–
Pumphrey enjoys her life with her family and a career as a registered nurse. But she said her vision always seemed to be a problem.“Without my glasses, the world was nothing but a blur,” Pumphrey said. “I could not read anything, I could not drive, I could not watch television or beyond the computer. I could do nothing without my glasses.”
Guier also said that success is not always the case. That’s why the adjustable lens creates a new alternative for people to make changes to their vision if the surgery does not meet their needs, which is something that was not possible before. The procedure includes using UV light to shape the lens within the eye. Guier said the entire process can take more than a month.“This is by far a real step ahead and with what the technology offers people functionally,” Guier said.“I have never seen this well in my life,” Pumphrey said.
