In many instances the answer is yes. If the reason you were not a candidate for Lasik was related to limitations to your prescription, the ReSTOR IOL may be the perfect solution for you. Several factors determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Obviously there are many conditions that can prevent you from being a good candidate for a ReSTOR IOL or Lasik (e.g. unstable diabetes, auto immune disorders, history of eye trauma etc.).
