Home Cataracts Lens Options for Cataract Surgery

What is an Intraocular Lens?

An intraocular lens(IOL) is an artificial lens that is implanted into the eye during cataract surgery. The intraocular lens acts as a replacement for the eye’s natural lens (or cloudy lens) which is removed during the surgery.

At Kleiman Evangelista, we specialize in advanced cataract treatments and the latest lens technology. During your consultation, our team will walk you through the different IOL options so you can choose the one that best fits your lifestyle and vision needs.

Which Lens is Right for Me?

The best lens depends on your needs. All artificial intraocular lenses will correct vision for cataract patients, but your lifestyle and eyesight improvement needs will help determine the best fit.

If you’re comfortable wearing glasses after cataract surgery, monofocal lenses may be the right choice. If you want to avoid wearing distance glasses after cataract surgery and have astigmatism, a toric lens might be appropriate. A multifocal lens may be best if you don’t want to wear distance and reading glasses after cataract surgery.

Hear from Dr. Singh on how he supports his patients in helping them understand which IOL lens option is right for them.
