Normal vision, called emmetropia, exists when distant light focuses clearly on a single point on the retina.
“In order to see something, the eye needs to focus light reflecting off that object onto the retina. Light from an object a long way off actually takes less focusing power than light from something closer. The increased power that the eye uses to see something up close is called accommodation.”
Acclaro helps its patients understand normal vision – or emmetropia – and how normal vision differs from their eye condition. Additionally, Acclaro helps its patients understand the treatment options available to help correct the eye conditions they might be experiencing.
