>>LEARN MOREMonofocal vs. Multifocal IOLs
Choosing The Right Lens Option For You!
Until recently cataract patients received monofocal lens implants that had only a single power. This meant you had a choice of correction for either far or near vision. If you suffer from presbyopia like many people over the age of 50 this would mean that you still need glasses for either reading or for distance vision. The FDA has now approved inovations in a variety of IOL designs, each with their own unique features and advancements.
The implantation procedure is the same for both types of IOLs. The main point of differentiation between the IOLs is in the type of vision they provide.
