This new generation of lens implants has the ability to restore distance vision to aging eyes with permanent results. The Crystalens works on "hinges" and moves in response to the eyes focusing muscles, just like a natural lens would. Dr. Dougherty was one of the first in the nation to offer this treatment, and has since performed more Crystalens procedures than most other eye doctors in the Los Angeles area.
