Benefits of ISON for Our Patients

“I started wearing glasses about 12 years ago. Every year my vision getting worse and I needed to change my prescription again. Three years ago, I took the leap of faith and tried the ISON. It turned out to be a very good decision. I wake up in the morning and I see (my children smile, the leaves on the tree out the window.) I can rub my eyes if I want, I can wear make-up, and when I want to wear something on my nose. I grab a pair of fancy sunglasses! J”

Dr. Elena Ghiaur (Internal Medicine)

“ The ISON lenses have made my life SO much better. My vision is perfect and it feels wonderful to be able to see naturally- it is freeing to not have to worry about watering getting in my eyes, or wind drying out the contacts.

Robin Wherley (Attorney)

“In 6th grade I had to get glasses because my vision was bad. I also found out that my vision was progressively getting worse while wearing glasses. Now, I wake up and I can see perfectly. My eyesight stopped getting worse, and I don’t have to worry about glasses.”

My Family

Since they began wearing ISON lenses in 2003, they have not worn eyeglasses or contact lenses and more importantly, their vision has not deteriorated.
