If you have what has been determined as humanity’s “normal” eyesight, you have 20/20 vision. In countries which use metric measurements, it is called 6/6 vision, referring to meters instead of feet. 20/20 vision is not “perfect” vision, but it is clear at all distances, needing no glasses or contact lenses. Vision can be better than 20/20, so let’s look at that further down this article.
Most of us are familiar with that eye chart which has a single large letter at the top (usually an
“E”) and rows of progressively smaller letters below it. There are some variations on the most common version of this chart. In all versions, one line is designated as the “normal vision” line and the others test your vision relative to that “normal” line.
When your eye doctor tests your vision for a glasses or contact lens prescription, the eye chart is seen through an ophthalmic device called a phoropter. You rest your chin and forehead against smooth surfaces and look with one eye at a time at the lighted chart inside the aperture.
There are also printed charts that can hang on the wall, and these can test your vision too, but the phoropter is more precise. Instead of you having to physically stand a certain distance away from it, distance is simulated by the phoropter’s optics.
Normality is defined as a clear perception of the designated “normal” line of letters at 20 feet from the eye chart. That is the first “20”. The second number, which may or may not be “20” is a comparison between the tested eye and a “normal” eye. The higher the second number is, the more vision impairment your eyes have.
· If a normal eye can see from 40 feet away what you must stand only 20 feet away to see, your vision is described as “20/40”.
· If a normal eye can see from 100 feet away what you can only see if you stand 20 feet away, your vision is “20/100”.
· If your vision is described as “20/200”, you are legally blind.
To describe this another way, imagine you moving back and forth from the eye chart, trying to see the “normal” line clearly. If you can see it clearly from 20 feet away, your eyesight is 20/20. If you must edge closer to the chart to see it, your vision is impaired and you are nearsighted.
But ophthalmologists don’t usually measure those closer distances in defining your visual acuity. They talk in terms of further distances and postulate that the tested eye is always at 20 feet from the chart. They then compare that amount of acuity with what a normal eye has at varying distances. When the normal eye can see from 80 feet what you see at 20 feet, your vision is 20/80.
· If your vision is 20/16 you can see from 20 feet away what a “normal” eye can only see from 16 feet. That is better visual acuity than what we consider to be normal.
After a Custom LASIK surgery many people can see with 20/16 clarity. Their vision has been made better than humanity’s normal vision. Custom LASIK is based on a more sophisticated and accurate diagnosis than the original Traditional LASIK was. A Custom LASIK procedure does more than just correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and/or astigmatism (that is, the three Lower Order Aberrations).
It also corrects the tiny irregularities called Higher Order Aberrations. A phoropter is not used to diagnose your eyes for Custom LASIK. Instead, a newer technology is used called Wavefront technology. It shines a light into each eye and measures the slight changes in it as it reflects back from your eye into the Wavefront system. From the resulting colored 3-D maps of each eye’s contours, your LASIK surgeon can plan a more precise treatment.
When the Custom LASIK laser smoothes out these microscopic irregularities in the eye’s cornea (clear front part), your vision improves beyond what glasses or contact lenses can achieve. This is how a person can achieve 20/16 vision – better than normal. The Higher Order Aberrations cause visual distortions which show up in dim light, such as halos around light sources, decreased contrast between light and dark, and faint duplicate images. When these are corrected, your vision is clearer in all lighting conditions.

After many years of wearing eyeglasses, I finally decided to have a laser eye surgery. I only want the best so I’ve done a lot of research to find the best eye surgeon here in NYC. I found Dr. Emil William Chynn whose record is indeed remarkable. I called and have an appointment right away with his clinic, Park Avenue Laser Vision. The staff exceeded my expectations. They are very friendly and very informative. They really explained how the procedure works and the cost which I found is reasonable. My surgery was scheduled in the morning of June 13, 2008. Like any patient on the day of surgery, I was anxious. They gave me a pill to keep me relaxed. The LASEK surgery took only 20 minutes on both eyes! The surgery was not painful at all. Dr. Chynn and his assistant Dr. Almeida, was very precise and reassuring. It was indeed a life changing experience for me. I can see clearly now and I’m almost 20/20! As they say, it would get better and better everyday. And it is, life is good especially now that I can see clearly the beauty of the world around me.

Whether or not you have 20/20 vision, the eyes are the most important organ in your body. From spectacles to glasses to contact lenses, our ability to see clearly is paramount in our every day lives. It is no wonder, then, that millions of individuals are opting to have laser surgery to correct their vision.
Lasik surgery in Houston Texas has been the laser center of choice for over 40,000 million individuals, celebrities, and world known personalities. Having recently acquired the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q system, lasik surgery here is not only affordable, but its team of doctors and professionals specialize in laser surgery only.
Just as you would not seek advice from a general practitioner for your heart; this area is renowned for having the most advanced equipment in the nation and thus, this city is the place to go to for corrective eye surgery.
Lasik surgery here utilizes the Allegretto Wave, has advanced surgical procedures ten-fold. With its precision laser, the Allegretto can treat one diopter in approximately two seconds thereby reducing the anxiety most patients incur. In addition, because all the diagnostic equipment is available on site, the savings to patients are increased.
This type of surgery was pioneered by Dr. Charles Moore who worked tirelessly with the German manufacturer to design and develop new lasik diagnostic and surgical equipment such as the Allegretto Wave. Expert in the field of refractive surgery, Dr. Moore has worked with doctors worldwide to improve and ultimately succeed in helping to develop this new technological system.
While there are many individuals who need but are reluctant to have laser surgery, knowing there is one area in the nation where corrective surgery can be performed and customized to suit each patient is a rarity. Moreover, patients who have undergone lasik surgery in houston texas have attested to the extraordinary results of this type of surgery and are elated they are no longer in need of wearing glasses or contact lenses any longer.
Although much has been written about laser surgery, the proof of its success lies at the door of lasik surgery. It is to Dr. Moore’s credit and his team of professionals that corrective eye surgery has advanced to such a degree that millions of individuals have chosen this area as its preferred source for laser surgery.
Refractive surgery is permanent and will affect your vision the rest of your life. There are no guarantees with any surgery that includes Lasik laser eye surgery or refractive eye surgeries. Ask your ophthalmologist all the questions you need to ask, read all the information that you need to read to become educated on this procedure. Make sure that your ophthalmologist is qualified and has a good reputation. Make sure he or she is available for you after surgery of complications should occur.

I am one of those people who started wearing glasses and contact lenses by the time I was 13 years old. People with high myopia can sympathize with me because I could only see hand motion without contact lenses or glasses. I have been thinking about the procedure since 2001. Every time when I heard that a relative or friend had LASIK, I would research about the procedure. But I was a “scaredy cat” and afraid of getting my cornea cut. After years of struggling with contact lenses, I had the epi-LASEK procedure performed on my eyes by Dr. Emil Chynn on April 30, 2008. I finally took the plunge based on the thoroughness of Dr. Chynn’s evaluations after years of indecisiveness. I was very impressed by Dr. Chynn’s credentials. He is a Columbia and Harvard-trained physician who also elected to further his formal education with a one-year refractive surgery and corneal fellowship at Emory University, where he studied under Dr. George Warning MD, one of the world’s leading authorities on refractive surgery.
Now, I can finally see the way I used to see as a young child. Having my vision permanently corrected has been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself! From waking up in the morning and being able to se the clock, to driving, watching television, even putting on make-up! Being able to see clearly with out wearing glasses is truly amazing! Seeing is believing! Dr. Chynn — Thank you for making this incredible difference in my life!! You have my deepest gratitude. To anyone who is myopic and considering laser vision correction, I would highly recommend Park Avenue Laser Vision. At Park Avenue Laser Vision, you are always assured of the best equipment, the highest standards of quality control and excellent physicians, which optimizes your chances for an excellent result.

This is a video of the laser vision correction surgery that was performed on my by Dr. Emil Chynn at Park Avenue Laser Vision in New York City. This is the newest, bladeless, flapless laser procedure (called LASEK, not LASIK) and I am now seeing 20/20, just days after the surgery.
Dr. Chynn was the first doctor in NY to perform lasik procedures, and has since performed over 9000 with no lawsuits or settlements. I would highly recommend going to Dr. Chynn if you live in the tri-state area!
