How Premium Lenses Improve Daily Life.
What Premium Lenses Do.
Premium lenses expand your range of clear vision, reduce the need for glasses. And better match your vision to your life style goals. Some options also shape your result. Surgery to improve precision, mainly in complex eyes.
many-focus and extended-depth-of-focus (EDOF) lenses are designed to give clarity across distance, mid. And near tasks, helping many people read a menu, use a computer. And watch television without switching glasses as often. EDOF designs. The an acrylic IOL IQ an EDOF IOL, use non-split-light technology to stretch the focal range. This gives excellent distance and mid vision with a lower incidence of halos and glare compared to many many-focus lenses. While still offering useful near vision for many tasks.
The Light tunable Lens (the lens) from a light tunable lens is a unique one-focus lens made of a photosensitive silicone. Allows the lens power to be adjusted non-invasively after surgery. Using a expert Light Delivery Device (LDD), your surgeon can modify the lens curvature to correct residual refractive errors. Including blur down to 0.50 D, with LASIK-like precision. This approach is mainly helpful if you have had prior LASIK or PRK. Or have checks that make exact targeting more challenging.
Toric premium lenses correct corneal blur during cataract surgery, improving sharpness and reducing the need for glasses at one or more distances depending on the lens category chosen. blur can also be refined after surgery when using tunable technologies. Which helps minimize residual blur.
many-focus lenses can increase the chance of halos and glare. And some people may notice changes in contrast feel, mainly in low light compared with monofocals. Careful candidacy screening and view setting helps match you to a lens. Balances range of vision with night comfort and contrast for your life style.

Examples include the a three-focus IOL three-focus IOL and the newer an acrylic IOL a three-focus IOL Pro. The a three-focus IOL Pro is built on the same platform but features updated optics designed to improve light utilization to 94 percent and reduce light scatter. Enhances image contrast.
EDOF lenses stretch and shift light to create a broader focal range with a visual-disturbance profile closer to one-focus designs, putting first distance and mid with useful near vision for many tasks.
