Joe, Thank you for the informative post. One question I still have is whether the 200 million estimate for people that could benefit from the procedure includes both people with hyperopia and people with presbyopia. If so, I wonder how it breaks down. I am going on gut reaction, but it seems to me the SNRS procedure would be an easier choice for hyperopes than presbyopes. Correction of distance vision is an obvious advantage. But as I understand it, correction of presbyopia by SNRS involves inducing slight myopia in one eye. I wonder if many candidates for this surgery might not want to make this trade off. (I have PRK corrected vision and no presbyopia yet, but when it occurs I think I will be reluctant to tinker with further surgery, particularly if it could undermine my distance vision even slightly. But maybe that's just me.) I don't mean this as a dig on SNRS. I am long and happy. But I wonder if others have thoughts on the relative potential re hyperopia v. presbyopia.
