Understanding Advanced Technology Lens Implants: Overview, Benefits, and Options

Advanced technology lens implants, also known as premium intraocular lenses (IOLs), are innovative lens implants used during cataract surgery to not only replace the cloudy natural lens but also correct other refractive errors such as astigmatism or presbyopia. These advanced lenses offer enhanced vision quality and may reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contacts following surgery.

The benefits of advanced technology lens implants include:

  • Improved visual clarity at various distances
  • Reduced dependency on glasses or contact lenses for near, intermediate, and distance vision
  • Correction of astigmatism, if present, for sharper and more focused vision
  • Enhanced contrast sensitivity and night vision
  • Potential for greater overall satisfaction and visual quality compared to traditional monofocal lenses

IOLs

There are several types of advanced technology lens implants available, including:

Multifocal IOLs: These lenses have different zones or rings that enable vision at multiple distances, allowing patients to see clearly both up close and far away without the need for reading glasses.

Toric IOLs: Toric lenses are designed to correct astigmatism, providing sharper and more consistent vision for patients with irregular corneal shape.

Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) IOLs: EDOF lenses provide a continuous range of vision, offering improved intermediate vision while maintaining good distance vision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Advanced Techology Lens Implants

Candidates for advanced technology lens implants are typically individuals undergoing cataract surgery who desire reduced dependency on glasses or contact lenses for their daily activities. Your suitability for these lenses will be determined during a comprehensive eye evaluation and discussion with your surgeon.

While basic cataract surgery and monofocal lens implants are usually covered by insurance, advanced technology lens implants may be considered elective and may require an additional out-of-pocket expense. Our team can help you understand your insurance coverage and explore financing options if needed.

Many patients experience improved vision within a few days to weeks after cataract surgery with advanced technology lens implants. Visual acuity and quality may continue to improve as the eyes heal and adjust to the new lenses.

While advanced technology lens implants can significantly reduce the need for glasses or contacts, some patients may still require glasses for certain tasks such as reading fine print or driving at night. Your surgeon will discuss your visual expectations and help you select the most suitable lens option for your lifestyle.

Advanced technology lens implants are designed to be permanent and typically do not require replacement. Once implanted, these lenses become a part of your eye and provide long-lasting vision correction for years to come.
