Online Eye Suitability Test

Our Recommendation

Thank you for completing the Online Eye Suitability Test. Based on your answers, you likely have astigmatism, combined with either hyperopia or myopia.

What does this mean?

Astigmatism is where the front of your eye is shaped like a rugby ball, rather than a bowling ball, causing the image to be stretched. Hyperopia (far-sightedness) and myopia (short-sightedness) are caused by a mismatch between the shape and length of the eye.

The good news is that you are likely to be a good candidate for refractive lensectomy. This is sometimes referred to as refractive cataract surgery. In this procedure, the natural lens inside of your eye is replaced with a new, artificial lens implant. The big advantage of this procedure is that it is a permanent correction of your vision. Using this technology you may no longer need glasses to see!

We suggest that you come to our clinic for a comprehensive assessment. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we will carefully assess your suitability for all vision correction procedures and explain what you can expect.

Please call our clinic to schedule an appointment, or fill out your details below.

Our Recommendation

Thank you for completing the Online Eye Suitability Test. Based on your answers, you likely have mild presbyopia.

What does this mean?

Presbyopia is caused by the lens inside of your eye gradually losing its elasticity and focusing power. Presbyopia is the reason that people with excellent vision at all distances will often begin to need reading glasses in their 40s.

The good news is that you are likely to be a candidate for refractive lensectomy! This is sometimes referred to as refractive cataract surgery. In this procedure, the natural lens inside of your eye is replaced with a new, artificial lens implant. The big advantage of this procedure is that it is a permanent correction of your vision. Using this technology you may no longer need glasses to see!

However, given that you can currently see in the distance without glasses, and you can comfortably read text messages on your phone without glasses, you may decide that your eyes are simply too good to justify vision correction surgery at this time. Although the results of refractive lensectomy are excellent, Dr Andrew generally only recommends this procedure to patients whose vision is too blurred to read text messages on their phone.

Therefore, some people in your position decide to postpone this surgery for a couple of years. At that time, you will have more to gain from the procedure.

Alternatively, if you are keen to improve your vision now, then we suggest that you come to our clinic for a comprehensive assessment. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we will carefully assess your suitability for all vision correction procedures and explain what you can expect.

Our Recommendation

Thank you for completing the Online Eye Suitability Test. Based on your answers, you likely have hyperopia (far-sightedness).

What does this mean?

Far-sightedness is caused by a mismatch between the shape and length of the eye. It causes people to need reading glasses at a younger age than normal. Over time, distance vision often becomes affected as well.

The good news is that you are likely to be suitable for corneal laser vision correction, specifically LASIK.

If you would like to find out more, we recommend that you watch Dr Andrew’s YouTube video, called "Surgical Vision Correction Explained".

Dr Andrew is currently focusing his practice on treating patients who are not suitable for LASIK, such as people with very high focus errors. As such, we recommend that you contact a laser vision clinic as they will be best placed to help you. We wish you all the very best on your journey to better vision!

Our Recommendation

Thank you for completing the Online Eye Suitability Test. Based on your answers, you likely have astigmatism, or myopia, or both.

What does this mean?

Astigmatism is where the front of your eye is shaped like a rugby ball, rather than a bowling ball, causing the image to be stretched. Myopia (short-sightedness) is caused by a mismatch between the shape and length of the eye.

The good news is that you are likely to be a good candidate for vision correction surgery! The best treatment for you will either be corneal laser vision correction with LASIK or SMILE, or insertion of a phakic intraocular lens.

Phakic intraocular lenses are known as Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICLs) or Artiflex lenses. Think of it as a contact lens that is surgically placed inside of your eye. The big advantage of this procedure is that it gives the best possible clarity of vision, the best night vision, it doesn’t exacerbate dry eye, and the surgery is reversible.

While ICL surgery is performed by several eye surgeons, Artiflex surgery is incredibly rare, as the procedure is more technical. Dr Andrew is the only eye surgeon in Australia who is experienced in both ICLs and Artiflex lenses.

We suggest that you come to our clinic for a comprehensive assessment. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we will carefully assess your suitability for all vision correction procedures and explain what you can expect.

Astigmatism is where the front of your eye is shaped like a rugby ball, rather than a bowling ball, causing the image to be stretched. Myopia (short) is caused by a mismatch between the shape and length of the eye.

The good news is that you may be a candidate for surgical vision correction. However, we would need to know the exact script of your glasses or contact lenses to confirm whether we are able to help you.

Thank you for completing the Online Eye Suitability Test. Based on your answers, you likely have myopia (short-sightedness).

What does this mean?

Short-sightedness is caused by a mismatch between the shape and length of the eye. Short-sighted people can see close objects clearly, but distance objects are out of focus.

The disadvantage of phakic intraocular lenses is that this surgery is significantly more expensive than LASIK or SMILE.

Dr Andrew is currently focusing his practice on treating patients who are best suited to phakic intraocular lenses. Given your age and focus error, we recommend that you first see a laser vision clinic to hear if this treatment is acceptable to you. If you decide that you would like to have phakic intraocular lens surgery instead, then please contact us.
