A decade of research and development and testing to satisfy government approval processes has determined that the inlay is a safe and effective solution to your near vision loss. Sometime in your 40’s, you likely noticed a change in your near vision due to presbyopia (prez-bee-‘O-pee-uh), which occurs when your eye’s natural lens becomes too stiff to change focus for up close vision.

What is the KAMRA inlay laser eye surgery?
The inlay is a microscopic plastic ring that’s implanted in the eye’s outer layer, the cornea. In addition to the opening in the center, the inlay features 8,400 high precision, laser etched micro-openings along the surface to maintain cornea health.
How does the inlay work?
The KAMRA inlay works like the aperture of a camera to restore your eye’s ability to focus light from a nearby object. The inlay extends your range of vision by focusing light that enters your eye through the center of the inlay and cuts out the peripheral blur.
What benefits can I expect from this type of laser eye surgery?
You can expect less dependency on reading glasses and improved clarity when performing everyday activities, such as reading a text message on your phone or laptop screen, food labels, price tag, receipt or other items you encounter on a daily basis.
Will my distance vision change?
Whilst mono-vision with LASIK or contact lenses can significantly compromise distance vision, the inlay revives near vision while better maintaining distance vision.
