Understanding How Lens Implants Work

Cataract surgery is a simple and effective procedure designed to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens, known as an intraocular lens (IOL). These lenses are crafted from a clear, biocompatible material and are available in various types. Certain premium IOL varieties, like multifocal and toric lenses, can correct common refractive errors like presbyopia, astigmatism, and nearsightedness (myopia), reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses after surgery.

Choosing the Right IOL

Several types of IOLs are available, each catering to different visual needs.

Monofocal lenses provide clear vision at a specific distance, either near, intermediate, or far.

arrow-circle-right-3 arrow-circle-right-3-light Multifocal IOLs

These premium lenses have multiple focal points, allowing patients to see clearly at varying distances. These lenses reduce dependency on glasses for both near and distant tasks.

Toric lenses are specifically designed to correct astigmatism, a condition where the cornea or lens is irregular.

These lenses mimic the eye's natural ability to change focus between different distances, reducing the need for reading glasses.

These lenses can be precisely adjusted post-surgery using non-invasive light treatments, ensuring optimal vision correction.

EDOF lenses enhance the depth of focus, providing a continuous range of clear vision from near to intermediate distances.
