Some people say that the artisan lens can increase the risk of corneal cell loss…
I agree with Loki431, and thus chose to go with this lens.

Thanks for posting …
Thanks for posting this. Now I have a video to show friends and family about my procedure. I got these a year ago and it’s probably up there with going to college as good life decisions go.

I’m surprised some posters rule it out based on a couple minutes of queasiness. Seems way safer than the thousands of times I put contacts in my eyes after they could be exposed to who knows what in the environment.

In the USA, the …
In the USA, the glaucoma issue is resolved by the FDA requirement for iridotomy which ensures the proper flow of aqueous humor. There is a small risk (less than 1%)of cataract formation if the implanted lens touches the natural lens during insertion or if the chamber is not of adequate depth but we have rigorous testing procedures required to lessen that chance.

This is a safe procedure. If it were not, I wouldn’t have had it performed on my eyes two years ago.

this phakic intraocular lens can produces glaucoma and cataract. The artisan lens its a best choice.

Even a simple routine procedure such as this has the risk of complications, and I’d rather wear glasses the rest of my life than take that risk.

DrGFS said in September 30th, 2008 at 11:10 am

-6.25 would be the strength of your lenses.
20/360 means that what a normal person can see at 360 feet, they would need to be a 20 feet to see it.

One of the criteria for the lenses is that your script has been stable for a long time.

As you get older it is normal to get long vision, and some people need to add reading glasses. This was all explained to be when I had the operation and I was happy to go ahead.

I had this procedure done just over 2 weeks ago and love it. The cost in US dollars was $3100 per eye, so it was $6000 total, but I’ve always wanted perfect eyesight. The procedure was painless, but I am experiencing some side effects like itching and discomfort which should go away with time. My eyesight was 20/360 before I had it done, now it’s 20/40 on my left eye and 20/20 on my right. They said that that will even improve over time. I think I made the right decision. I love it.
