Cataract surgery is the most popular surgery in the world. As such, the technological advances for cataract surgery are constantly evolving. One of the most recent advances that we are excited about is premium intraocular lenses (IOL). Traditional mono-focal intraocular lenses offer patients only one distance they can focus on (either near or far distance but not both) and do not correct astigmatism.
East West Eye is proud to offer premium intraocular lenses, which make it possible to see both far and near more clearly, as well as an ability to correct astigmatism. These special lenses can also be considered for people with presbyopia (age-related inability to see near). Your East West Eye doctor will evaluate if these special lenses are the right choice for you. We are a top practice nationwide for premium intraocular lenses.
These lenses have unique technology built into the entire lens that imparts different focal points. They are also called multifocal lenses and toric lenses. After implanting a premium intraocular lens, people can often stop wearing eyeglasses and contact lenses. Multifocal IOLs all work to improve intermediate, far, and near distances.
Toric IOLs work to eliminate astigmatism in patients. In the vast majority of patients, after having these special lenses implanted, patients no longer need to wear corrective lenses to see clearly at any distance. The results are long-lasting since the lenses are implanted in the eye during cataract surgery. Premium IOLs work great with the other breakthrough technology in cataract surgery: femtosecond laser cataract surgery. Please click here for more on femtosecond laser (laser cataract surgery).
