Dr. Ella Faktorovich will explore the life-changing impact that great vision can have on your vitality, independence, and mental clarity. Whether you’re tired of glasses, struggling with contact lenses, or just plain curious about new options, come to this talk. Dr. Faktorovich will describe how the technology, born out of cataract and refractive surgery innovations, has advanced so significantly that most people can return to full functionality with results that can dramatically increase the quality and enjoyment of life your life.
In this deeply informative and nuanced look at why our eyesight matters far beyond aesthetics, Dr. Faktorovich will break down what makes these procedures safer and more effective and who stands to benefit most. She will explain and provide insight into custom lens implants which are permanent, minimally invasive solutions designed for individuals in their 40s and beyond.
