LANCASTER, Mass., Aug. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Francis A. D'Ambrosio, Jr.,
M.D., a leading ophthalmic surgeon and clinical researcher in Lancaster,
Massachusetts, reports that lens replacement surgery using Crystalens(TM), the
first of its kind focusing implantable lens has produced excellent clinical
results and patient satisfaction. "After having now used the Crystalens(TM)
for more than 6 months, our patients are telling us that their goal of
returning to their work, recreational and daily lives without having to depend
on glasses or corrective lenses has been achieved," said Dr. D'Ambrosio, Jr.
The Crystalens(TM) works by moving in a backwards and forwards motion
along the axis of the eye in response to pressure changes in the front and
back of the eye that result from relaxation and contraction of the ciliary
muscle which is normally used to change the focus of the eye.
"Patients are pleased with the results of Crystalens(TM) in that it gives
them a normal range of vision and in most cases without the need for glasses
or contact lenses for ordinary activities and tasks. Restoring seamless vision
for far, arm's length and near vision without bifocals is a major benefit for
my patients," said Dr. D'Ambrosio, Jr.
Dr. D'Ambrosio, Jr., the first eye surgeon to implant Crystalens(TM) in
Massachusetts, has implanted more than 30 Crystalens(TM) since its F.D.A.
approval. Of those, over 90% are now able to achieve an expanded functional
range of vision so that they read, drive and see objects at intermediate
distances, without needing glasses or bifocals.
