Beverly Hills Vision

Blurry vision in the presbyopic age group (over 45) is troublesome to all affected.  This combined with cataracts whether early or late onset can be disturbing to one’s lifestyle.  Groping for your eyeglasses in the morning or dealing with dry contacts is irritating to most.  In the United States, intraocular lens implants (IOLs) are a great opportunity to relieve that everyday stress. In fact, almost 2 million Americans ages 45 and above have surgery every year to relieve these symptoms. Up to a few years ago, intraocular lens implants were only mono-focal.  This means that they provided improvement to only one distance, such as simply far or near.  With the introduction of new accommodating and multifocal lens technology, needing glasses or contacts for any distance is a thing of the past.  Dr. Khodabakhsh is one of the first surgeons in the Los Angeles area to dedicate his practice to the implantation of these premium lenses.

The process starts with a thorough consultation by Dr. Khodabakhsh to make sure there are no other diseases in the eye.  After the patient is thoroughly educated on the different procedures and lenses, Dr. Khodabakhsh performs the surgical eye procedure under local anesthesia in sometimes less than a few minutes. This surgical eye procedure is a lens based surgery, to replace ones natural lens, and to improve power of the eye at all distances.  At the Beverly Hills Vision Institute, Dr. Khodabakhsh customizes the patient’s eye to the lens that best suits the patients needs and everyday activities.

Dr. Khodabakhsh at the Beverly Hills Vision Institute, has used all of the different brands of premium lenses including, Crystalens,® AcrySof® Restor® IOL, ReZoom, TECNIS Multifocal, Toric, Aspheric. He is the recipient of many awards and has lectured throughout the United States and abroad on the topic of implant surgery. The microsurgery only requires a small incision; stitches are unnecessary. On average, the whole procedure can takes between 15-30 minutes and your vision improves almost immediately with a total recovery period of a few days. Dr. Khodabakhsh of the Beverly Hills Vision Institute, who also serves the South Bay area, including Torrance, performs lens based treatments, and a range of laser vision correction.
