The doctor can decide how to focus your eyes. Most people have one eye focused up close and one farther away so that they can see close up for reading and far away for distance. I was extremely near sighted and because of that and my other eye problems (I had extremely bad double vision -- prisms of +7) my doctor focused both my eyes at middle distance. This was a big issue of discussion between my regular opthamologist at UCLA's Jules Stein Institute (who has been treating me since I was 7) and my Lasik surgeon, Dr. Maloney. The results are amazing. I can't express how wonderful it is not to have to wear glasses anymore.
