Do you want to reduce your dependence on visual aids after cataract surgery? One of the best ways to do this is by choosing premium IOLs to replace your natural lens during cataract surgery.
Here are the advanced options you will have to choose from at The Omaha and Lincoln Eye and Laser Institute:
Toric IOL
One of the best ways to correct astigmatism and improve your vision is by choosing a toric lens during cataract surgery. Toric IOLs are the only intraocular lenses specially designed to correct astigmatism.
Astigmatism occurs when your eye is more of an egg shape like a football, rather than round and convex like a baseball or basketball. Because of this, you’ll experience distorted or blurry vision at all distances.
Toric IOLs have different powers throughout the lens, which helps reduce the eye’s curvature and improve your vision. These IOLs can also correct other refractive errors, such as nearsightedness and farsightedness, ensuring that you can enjoy clearer vision after cataract surgery.
PanOptix Trifocal IOL
The PanOptix is a trifocal IOL, meaning it has three unique and distinct focusing zones to ensure you can see clearly up close, far away, and everything in between. The PanOptix trifocal IOL’s advanced lens technology provides excellent vision in all conditions, including low light.
This means you can stop thinking about where you put your readers and instead enjoy crisp, sharp, and vibrant vision. Whether you love to sail, bake cookies with your grandchildren, or are well on your way to a new career as a painter, the PanOptix trifocal IOL will ensure you can enjoy all the color and vibrance the world offers.
Odyssey IOL
The TECNIS Odyssey IOL is another advanced lens that delivers seamless, continuous vision across all distances while setting new standards for contrast sensitivity and low-light performance. The Odyssey IOL has an innovative front-surface diffractive pattern.
This unique design minimizes the visual disturbances commonly associated with multifocal IOLs, such as halos and glare, allowing you to experience clearer, more natural vision throughout your daily activities. The lens’s sophisticated engineering addresses one of the most challenging aspects of artificial lenses: chromatic aberration, where different colors focus at varying points.
By reducing chromatic aberration, the Odyssey IOL can help you achieve sharper, more precise vision. This lens can provide exceptional clarity across the full spectrum of vision, from reading fine print to viewing distant objects.
Clearview IOL
The Lenstec ClearView 3 Multifocal IOL redefines expectations for vision after cataract surgery. This sophisticated lens uses an innovative asymmetric segmented design that delivers exceptional vision across all distances while maintaining excellent contrast sensitivity.
The ClearView 3 offers finely calibrated power increments, allowing surgeons to achieve a level of customization previously unavailable in multifocal IOLs. This lens also features a groundbreaking seamless transition zone that enables fluid, natural progression between near and distance vision.
The ClearView 3 Multifocal IOL’s ability to deliver crisp, clear vision across all distances, from detailed near work to intermediate computer use and distance viewing, makes it a great choice for those looking to reduce their dependence on visual aids after cataract surgery.
Light Adjustable Lens
The Light Adjustable Lens allows patients to customize their vision to their exact and unique visual needs after cataract surgery. No other IOL provides this option, as other traditional IOLs have a fixed power.
With the Light Adjustable Lens, you’ll work with your eye doctor at Omaha Eye to fine-tune your vision during light treatments after healing from cataract surgery. These light treatments allow you to preview your vision and ensure the best possible vision after cataract surgery.
Most patients only require 2 to 3 light treatments before needing two final light treatments to lock their vision in. After locking in your vision, all visual results from the Light Adjustable Lens are permanent. The Light Adjustable Lens offers patients precision and personalization that no other IOLs, premium or otherwise, can match.
