[Leica] IMG: Eye Check

[Richard Clompus]

Jim, this is a common laser procedure that creates a clear opening in the capsule that holds the intra-ocular lens in place.  The capsule is a remnant of your original lens.  The procedure is called a YAG capsulotomy and is usually very successful in restoring vision.  Hopefully, your vision will be clearer and remain that way for decades to come.  Happy shooting!!

Be well,
Richard

Everything seems fine today, but I wanted to be sure it didn't affect my picture taking ability.  The only subjects available to me were bees today, but I took this one without my glasses.  I'll find out in a few weeks if a new Rx will help my glasses.
