Glare, Halos, and other Vision Problems - Multifocal IOLs & Opticians Upselling AntiGlare coatings
Buckle up, as this is a long one. I address the many causes of vision dysphotopsias such as glare, halos, the problems of contrast sensitivity and the many, many causes of these issues such as dry eyes and tear film instability, corneal scarring and previous corneal refractive surgeries such as LASIK, PRK, RK, as well as cataract with or without YAG laser treatment for posterior capsular opacification (PCO). But wait, there's more. A very common age-related event, the posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) can also cause visual problems such as glare. Unlike the other conditions, a PVD causes a dynamic fluctuation of glare that varies from moment to moment as with eye and head movements. PVDs can also alter contrast sensitivity and reduce it by about 50%. This is something that is not tested by your optician, optometrist, or ophthalmologist at a typical eye examination.
Lately, those with cataract surgery are 'pressured' (or, at least stongly directed) toward the significant 'out-of-pocket' expense for the "premium" lenses that are multifocal lens options. These have the potential for getting you out of glasses for distance AND near vision - but not without sacrifice. The cost is more than just financial, as there can be significant increases in halos, starbursts and other visual dysphotopsias.
I also address the issue of when your optician tries to upsell you with an antiglare coating for your eyeglasses correction. These antiglare coatings generally do not reduce glare but they can reduce the reflection off the surface of the glasses which doesn't benefit you all that much, the person wearing the glasses, but instead improves the appearance of the glasses to the person looking at you as they see less reflection off the front surface of the glass.
This is a lengthy one, but if you're frustrated and aren't sure why you're having vision problems and your doctor says everything is fine because you are seeing 20/20, well now you have a vocabulary and understanding to describe your problem.

The Floater Doctor, James H. Johnson M.D. is Medical Director of the only medical practice in the world specializing in, and exclusively treating bothersome spots, shadows, and clouds that affect your vision. Although common, especially changes such as posterior vitreous detachment (PVDs) as we age, these vitreous eye floaters are rarely offered treatment by your local and well qualified eye care providers, even at top specialty institutions. Dr. Johnson uses a specialized FDA-approved YAG laser to vaporize and destroy the proteins in the vitreous that are responsible for your spots, shadows, and moving blurred areas in your vision. He has been doing so since 2007 making him one of, if not the most experienced in this very specialty niche area in ophthalmology, a pioneer in this field.
