From the Department of Amazing comes this announcement from Israel’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center and Bar-Ilan University that their ophthalmologists have developed eye-drops that can improve both nearsightedness and farsightedness. It starts with an app on a patient’s mobile device to take measurements of their eye which is used to prepare a pattern for a quick laser proceedure. The procedure takes less that a second to perform after which the patient uses the special eye-drops to correct their vision.

The laser procedure preceding the eye-drops is much less aggressive that other laser eye procedures. Consequently, the process might need to be redone every one or two months in order to maintain the patients superior eyesight. A small price to pay for not having to wear glasses and contacts.
