VEC is the First Practice to Perform New LifeStyle Lens™ Procedure

In continuing to develop a national reputation as a leader in ophthalmology, Stephen V. Scoper, M.D., is the first surgeon in the Hampton Roads area to implant the groundbreaking Higher Power Toric Intraocular Lens (IOL). Now patients with greater than 2 diopters of astigmatism can experience clear vision without glasses after cataract surgery.

The Toric IOL is the first LifeStyle Lens™ option offered by Virginia Eye Consultants that is designed for patients experiencing the blurriness of cataracts who also have pre-existing astigmatism.

"Virginia Eye Consultants is focused on providing our patients with the most advanced technology and leading edge innovations in eye care," Scoper said. "The Toric IOL gives cataract patients with astigmatism the opportunity to enjoy distance vision without depending on glasses or contacts."

If you are interested in learning more about the Toric IOL, or would like to see if you are a candidate for the procedure, call Virginia Eye Consultants at 1-800-321-3937 or click here to schedule a free consultation.
