Blurry vision is one of the most frustrating issues a person can experience. This is in large part due to the fact that so many different conditions can cause blurry vision, so it’s hard to know what exactly is causing this symptom. In some cases, it’s something temporary, like fatigue or digital eye strain. In […]
Crossed eyes and lazy eye are two of the most easily recognizable eye conditions. These issues are mostly found in children; however, when left untreated, they can become a permanent condition in adult eyes, impacting both how you look and how you see. Because these conditions appear similarly, some people have a hard time telling […]
LASIK eye surgery has long been touted as a relative “quick fix” for refractive errors, like myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. This surgery has little downtime and often improves patients’ vision by using a highly specialized laser to alter the shape of the cornea. Unfortunately, for many people, the surgery doesn’t go quite as planned. While […]

Then, there’s the anxiety about actually showing up for an appointment and undergoing a series of tests. And that’s not to mention the worry about what […]

In either case, your look is nearly spot-on, but you’re missing one thing: the right eye color. Whether you’re looking to add that “wow” factor in either case, it can be tempting to pop in some […]
If you’ve been diagnosed with a refractive error, such as hyperopia, myopia, or astigmatism, it’s more than likely that you’ve also been prescribed corrective lenses.

Let’s face it: it’s now very clear that LASIK is not all it once promised to be. Here at Rebuild Your Vision, we’ve never been big supporters of this procedure. It’s needlessly invasive and not always effective. Plus, more and more patients are finding that, while their procedure corrected their vision for a while, it […]
Age-related macular degeneration is one of the most common and most unavoidable eye conditions. This is because, as we age, our bodies naturally degenerate, and this, of course, includes our eyes.
