Laser Eye Surgery for Night Vision and Driving Safely Although eye disease such as Cataracts, Glaucoma and Macular Degeneration are relatively common in older people, they are not the most frequent vision problem affecting drivers. The most common visual impairment in older drivers is uncorrected refractive error. Many older drivers are either unaware they need glasses or contact lenses to drive or they fail to keep their glasses prescriptions up to date. Vision loss is often a gradual thing isn’t always noticed straight away. If you are older or short sighted your night vision is worse – for instance a 50 year-old will need twice as much light to see as a 30-year-old. If you are considering laser eye surgery or intra-ocular or cataract surgery as a way of improving your vision it is important to understand the experience the clinic you have chosen has with regard to night vision and how it can be optimised through your treatment plan. Accuvision, based in London, Birmingham and Leeds introduced AccuWave™ wavefront diagnostics into the UK as part of their diagnostic procedures for laser eye surgery, before they were available in Europe and the USA.

Together with the Tscherning wavefront analyzer, through its in-built prolate profile enhancement, the Allegretto produces superb clinical outcomes and it is also very accurate - great news for those patients seeking an outcome that will optimise their night vision. The WaveLight Allegretto Eye-Q laser is able to use the high resolution data compiled during the laser eye surgery consultation procedure to produce much larger, more uniform treatment zones, vastly improving night vision results.

Laser Eye Surgery for Night Vision and Driving Safely

Although eye disease such as Cataracts, Glaucoma and Macular Degeneration are relatively common in older people, they are not the most frequent vision problem affecting drivers. The most common visual impairment in older drivers is uncorrected refractive error. Many older drivers are either unaware they need glasses or contact lenses to drive or they fail to keep their glasses prescriptions up to date. Vision loss is often a gradual thing isn’t always noticed straight away.

If you are older or short sighted your night vision is worse – for instance a 50 year-old will need twice as much light to see as a 30-year-old.
