Wall Street Journal March 29, 2001
In the March 29, 2001 issue of the Wall Street Journal Barrie Soloway, MD, FACS appeared in an article entitled:
Is End of Reading Glasses in Sight?
This discussed the concept of the Surgical Reversal of Presbyopia (SRP) procedure, as well as the results of the FDA monitored clinical trial in the United States.
Due to the fact that almost everyone older than 45 will need reading glasses, the author states that "the potential demand could be huge." So far in the testing "few problems have been reported." When asked how the patients that Dr. Soloway operated on for the FDA trials are doing, he stated "four of the five patients are out of reading glasses 100% of the time, and the fifth uses them only if the light is dim."
Overall there have been many successful SRP procedures completed throughout the world. Many doctors in the United States have undergone the surgery after seeing the results. Many even trusted the surgery enough to invest their own money in Presby Corp., the company that makes the implants.
If you would like to see if you are a candidate for the SRP procedure, please call Vista Alliance at (888) 821-EYES.
