Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

In the Dec. 2013 issue of The Star (MBCA magazine) there was a writeup by a guy who bragged on purchasing a 1984 300D for $4400 that was in Great Shape and then turning it in to his local dealer to fix "all the little stuff". The bill came to $4700 and BTW, he had other issues after that. Still,

And I think that was the deal with my former business partner. -D > On Jun 4, 2020, at 4:14 PM, Andrew Strasfogel wrote: > > And likely 99% effective, but you don't want to be a 1 percenter. > > On Thu, Jun 4, 2020 at 4:12 PM Dan Penoff via Mercedes > wrote: >

It’s not a long term fix, and they make that pretty clear. -D > On Jun 4, 2020, at 4:10 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes > wrote: > > A guy I worked with has Lasik around 15 years ago in his late 20's and tells > me he's due to have it again > Curt > > Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android > >

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

I must confess, being a pilot, I ask the Dr. more in depth questions than any patient he ever had. He got the work because he carefully answered each and every one of them, then sent me to read medical eye information to back it up. To say, "I was deeply concerned" is mild... Being blessed with

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

Never understood the one eye for near, one eye for far stuff with Lasik, either. It would seem like that would really mess you up. Had a former business partner who popped for Lasik, did it with one of the best guys around, and one of his eyes was bad, in that the surgery did not cure his

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

Sounds good! I still don't understand how one implanted lens can correct for both far and near vision - will have to dig deeper. I was never interested in the one eye for one, the other for the other idea - gives me a headache just thinking about it. I like your choice, just don't understand how

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

Both eyes are corrected with implant lens for both near and far vision, as well as individual correction for astigmatism [according to my eye surgeon, everyone has astigmatism, how much is individual]. FAA will not approve you for flight physical if you have one eye corrected for near vision and

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

OK - cataract surgery is in my near future, but haven't done the research into the options yet. Are you saying that the implanted lenses are like bi or tri focals? Or do you have one eye for far and one for close? How do your lenses work? On Thu, Jun 4, 2020 at 10:31 AM G Mann via Mercedes

Re: [MBZ] Progressive lenses.

Personal viewpoint on progressive lens. I tried them, with careful fitting by skilled eye specialist, and then went through 3 different sets of glasses, trying to get a fit I could live with. Total failure. Because of the lack of definition between near and mid and far they were a personal danger.
