Want to know which surgery suits you best?
Confused about which IOL to choose? Let’s review the options and determine the best fit for your needs.
Types of Intraocular Lenses (IOLs) We Offer at Claritas Eye & Retina Institute
Monofocal IOLs
They provide clear vision at a single distance; they are usually set for distance vision. Patients who wear them would need reading glasses for near work.
Multifocal IOLs
These IOLs have been designed to give sharp images at multiple distances, reducing or eliminating reliance on both distance and reading glasses. However, some people may experience colored halos, or glare due to concentric rings in the design of these lenses.
Toric IOL
These lenses, especially for patients who have astigmatism, correct the irregular shape of the cornea and offer excellent vision without relying on additional corrective glasses.
EDOF IOL
Or Extended Depth of Focus IOL. The design of EDOF Lenses allows for both excellent distance and intermediate vision without glasses. The design does not have any concentric rings in the IOL, therefore, there are no bothersome halos seen with EDOF IOLs.
