Blended vision is a technique used to achieve both good near vision and distance vision without relying on glasses or contact lenses.πŸ‘“

Especially for those who are over the age of 40 and are experiencing the frustrating loss of near vision, also known as presbyopia.😬

One eye is corrected to enable the patient to see clearly at close range – for example reading books or phones. While the other eye is corrected for clear long distance vision, for example driving.βœ”οΈ

Since both eyes work together when viewing, in most cases the brain β€œblends” the images together for clear vision at all distances.πŸ‘οΈ

Blended vision can be achieved by using laser vision correction technology, such as SMILE, LASIK, PRK, or through refractive lens exchange (RLE), which involves replacing the natural lens of the eye with a lens implant – otherwise known as an IOL (intra-ocular lens)

Dr Ben LaHood has particular skill and expertise in designing blended vision solutions for his patients, and is his own words - "you dont have to wait for cataract surgery to improve your vision!"πŸ˜€

Although highly skilled and trained to use all laser vision correction technology depending on what's best for each patient, many eye surgeons have a preference for one over others as they feel it can provide them with the ability to achieve the best visual results for their patients.πŸ‘οΈ

At a recent global ophthalmology conference Dr Ben LaHood was asked which he preferred - LASIK or SMILE? πŸ€”

And although he does have a preference for LASIK as he feels it provides him with greater scope, he always assesses each patients eyes and recommends the procedure he feels is best suited to the individual.βœ”οΈ

The good news is that Dr LaHood is able to offer his patients access to the complete suite of laser technology including SMILE, LASIK and PRK where he practices at ParkView Day Surgery.

Find out more about each of these technologies and the benefits of Laser Vision Correct at his website.

You may already know this but in addition to expertise in Laser Vision Correction, Dr Ben LaHood is a highly skilled and specialised cataract surgeon, with years of experience in restoring the vision of those that suffer from cataracts.πŸ‘οΈ

The cataract procedure involves removing the natural, cataract effected lens of the eye, and replacing it with an artificial lens. The type of lens used is discussed prior to surgery, and each of Dr LaHood's patient is provided a unique solution determined by visual goals and eye health. πŸ‘οΈ

His website provides expert information and answers to common questions about cataracts and this procedure.

One very common question Dr Ben LaHood is often asked is β€œwhat happens if I move during Laser Vision Correction?” πŸ€”

The answer is nothing terrible as Laser Vision Correction surgery is extremely precise, safe, and effective, and small movements can be tolerated. However the results are likely to be more consistent if you are able to remain calm and still. βœ”οΈ

The important steps of LASIK, SMILE, and PRK only take a few seconds but in those few seconds many people can wriggle - especially if they are nervous.〰️

Before your procedure patients are provided a mild relaxant to reduce nerves, the procedure itself is fast and painless, and Dr LaHood and the nurses at ParkView Day Surgery are experienced and calm and so the experience is welcoming, efficient, professional and stress free.

If you would like to see the patient experience for yourself visit Dr LaHood's website at the link below where you are provided real-time insight into the procedure, and where you can find answers to other questions you may have.

You would think that the professional life of an ophthalmologist would be mostly spent in consulting or theatre, and in most cases you would be right.πŸ‘“πŸ‘οΈ

But not in the life of Dr Ben LaHood!πŸ˜€

As one of Australia's most respected and leading cataract and refractive (laser) surgeons, he is often asked to speak at global conferences, host or participate in podcasts, or participate in research or articles. πŸ‘οΈ

This month his latest Peer2Peer Pod produced by Rayner Global has been released alongside an article in Insight Magazine, last weekend he was in Manilla speaking at a conference, and next month holds something new and innovative within his eye care portfolio (watch the space πŸ€”πŸ‘οΈ)! βœ”οΈ

He juggles these commitments with a busy consulting and surgical practice in Adelaide at Adelaide Eye & Laser Centre.

Listen in on this consultation with Bec who had laser eye surgery with Dr LaHood in 2024.πŸ‘‚

One of the only hard and fast rules that Dr Ben Lahood has for patients after having Laser Vision Correction is...

❌No swimming for a week!

Other key questions people ask are:
πŸ‘οΈ Can I drive?
βœ”οΈThe answer is yes! But not until the following day and it is also a good idea to begin with day time driving as your eyes adjust as you may experience halos at night as your eyes adjust.

πŸ‘οΈCan I wear make up?
βœ”οΈThe answer is you can! He would prefer no mascara for a week but foundation, eye shadow is ok.

And lastly be careful to not rub for eyes for a week while they heal.
