DLC Lasik Austin News – Patient Receives Implantable Miniature Telescope
The
Implantable Miniature Telescope is indicated for monocular implantation to
improve vision in patients aged 75 years and older who have stable severe to
profound visual impairment (BCVA 20/160-20/800) caused by bilateral central
scotomas (loss of vision) associated with end-stage AMD. In an outpatient
surgical procedure, the miniature telescope is implanted in one eye, in which
it magnifies central images over a wide area of the retina to improve central
vision. The unoperated eye provides peripheral vision.
