Why Would a Crystalens Implant Fail?

Posted By Patient Letter to the Editor On August 18, 2011 @ 4:05 pm In Cataract,Patient Questions,Presbyopia | Comments Disabled

I had the Crystalens implanted in both eyes in March of 2010 and my vision is worse than ever. 

My surgeon insists that my vision is bad because of dry eye syndrome and I am not consistent with eye drops. 

Since I am a person with “common sense” and I never had dry eye before that I know of, I don’t believe him.

What are some reasons for failure with this procedure?  Since insurance (Medicare) didn’t cover, I paid out of pocket, $2,780.00 per eye.
