With Clarity the choice is yours, our consultants will customise your cataract surgery to suit your eyes and lifestyle.
Choosing the right lens is a crucial decision, as it will significantly impact your sight after the procedure. Here at Clarity, we offer a range of advanced IOLs to suit your individual needs and lifestyle. On this page, we’ll guide you through the various options available, including standard monofocal intraocular lenses, enhanced premium monofocal lenses, and advanced trifocal and toric lenses. Understanding the unique benefits of each will empower you to make an informed choice in consultation with your Clarity surgeon. Let’s explore the possibilities and how your vision could improve.
Monofocal intraocular lenses offer a reliable and cost-effective solution for cataract surgery, primarily focusing on restoring clear distance vision. This targeted approach provides significant advantages for individuals prioritising sharp sight at far distances, such as driving or watching television.
By correcting for distance vision, monofocal lenses minimise or eliminate the need for corrective lenses in those scenarios. While reading glasses or other near-vision aids will still be necessary for tasks like reading, using a mobile phone, or working on a computer, the enhanced distance vision can significantly improve overall quality of life and reduce dependence on glasses for a substantial portion of daily activities.
Premium monofocal lenses offer a significant advantage for cataract surgery patients seeking clear distance vision with enhanced intermediate functionality. By design, these lenses prioritise sharp distance acuity, minimising or eliminating the need for glasses for activities like driving and watching television.
They provide up to 1 dioptre of intermediate vision, offering clarity at distances between 66-80cm. This extended range often allows patients to comfortably use computers or view dashboards without relying on glasses, reserving their use primarily for close reading tasks. This focused approach to distance and intermediate vision can significantly improve daily functionality and reduce reliance on corrective eyewear for a substantial portion of a patient’s activities.
When considering cataract surgery, opting for trifocal and toric lenses can provide significant advantages. Trifocal lenses are designed to offer clear vision at near, intermediate, and far distances, potentially minimising or eliminating the need for glasses for most daily activities. This is particularly beneficial for those wanting to maintain an active lifestyle.
Toric lenses, on the other hand, are specifically crafted to correct astigmatism, a common condition that causes blurred vision. By addressing both cataracts and astigmatism in a single procedure, these lenses can deliver sharper, more refined visual outcomes. Combining trifocal and toric capabilities can therefore provide a comprehensive solution, enhancing overall visual clarity and reducing reliance on corrective eyewear.
