2022年11月1日 · What Are Multifocal IOLs & Why Are They Used? Multifocal IOLs are a type of artificial lens that replaces the natural lens during cataract surgery. As you age, or due to a disease or some sort of eye damage, you may develop a cataract, which leads to cloudy vision.

The multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) available are often able to restore visual function and allow spectacle independence after their implantation with great levels of patient satisfaction.

IOLs (intraocular lenses) are clear, artificial lenses that replace your eye’s natural ones. You receive IOLs during cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange. IOL implants correct a range of vision issues, including nearsightedness and age-related farsightedness.

2022年12月12日 · Most people who choose monofocals have their IOLs set for distance vision. They use reading glasses for near-vision tasks. Multifocal IOLs have corrective zones built into the lens, much like bifocal or trifocal eyeglasses. This allows you to see both near and far objects.

2022年1月1日 · Multifocal IOLs. Multifocal IOLs utilize diffractive optics to create three distinct focal points. As a result, they allow for the greatest range of near, intermediate, and distance vision, said Dr. Greenwood.

2024年6月1日 · Multifocal IOLs are intraocular lenses that can correct vision at multiple distances, reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses. Advantages of multifocal IOLs include improved near and distance vision, reduced dependency on glasses, and increased overall satisfaction with vision after cataract surgery.

2024年11月8日 · A multifocal lens is an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) designed to provide focus for both near and distance vision. Unlike standard monofocal lenses, which only correct for a single type of vision, multifocal lenses have multiple focal points, allowing patients to see clearly at multiple distances without glasses or contact lenses.

2023年8月7日 · Long regarded with suspicion due to significant optical aberrations, the newest crop of multifocal IOLs have finally achieved a remarkable level of performance and are a good choice for many patients.

Multifocal IOLs can provide clear vision at multiple distances, reducing the need for glasses after cataract surgery or a presbyopia diagnosis. Learn more about this innovative technology in our comprehensive guide.

Multifocal and accommodating intraocular lenses are artificial intraocular lenses (IOLs) that are designed to provide focus of both distance and near objects, in contrast to monofocal intraocular lenses which only have one focal point and correct distance vision.
