As part of cataract surgery, your natural lens will be removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens. There are three different types of intraocular lenses available including monofocal, toric, and presbyopic-correcting
An intraocular lens (IOL) is a small artificial lens that replaces the eye's natural lens during cataract surgery. The IOL provides similar focusing power to the natural lens; without it very thick glasses would be required after cataract surgery
What is a premium IOL? Premium IOLs are designed to offer some freedom from glasses after cataract surgery. They use advanced technology to correct for eye irregularities and help you focus better up close.
If you're comfortable wearing glasses after cataract surgery, a Monofocal lens may be the right choice.
If you want to avoid wearing distance glasses after cataract surgery Toric IOLs are single-focus lenses designed for people who have astigmatism .
Whilst monofocal lenses provide focus at one distance only, multifocal lenses allow for vision at a range of distances, meaning they can correct both near, intermediate and far distance. These are a more popular option for those who want to also eliminate their dependency for glasses
