Is there a higher chance of enhancements with higher prescriptions?
Yes, because accuracy decreases as prescriptions increase, we typically find that enhancements are more typical amongst patients who had higher pre-operative prescriptions, and among long-sighted patients. In spite of this effect, we still manage to keep our enhancement rates relatively low (between 5 and 8%). If you have more questions about your chance of needing an enhancement, contact a Patient Education Consultant on 0800 587 4705 or email us.
