Which multifocal IOL are the best?

Which multifocal IOL are the best?

Although there have been previous version of the AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® IOL the +3.0 D add power is the best choice for true performance at all distances. It provides improved intermediate vision over the original AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® IOL +4.0 D, with similar near and distance visual acuity.

Are multifocal IOLs worth it?

Existing systematic reviews have generally concluded that multifocal IOLs result in better uncorrected near vision and greater spectacle independence, but more unwanted visual phenomena such as glare and halos, compared to monofocal IOLs.

How good are multifocal cataract lenses?

Multifocal IOLs improve near, intermediate, and far-distance vision, varying with the lens model chosen. In many cases, after having the lenses implanted, people no longer need to wear corrective lenses to see clearly. No upkeep or routine replacement necessary. The results of multifocal IOLs are long-lasting.

What is Tecnis multifocal lens?

The TECNIS® multifocal IOL was designed using wavefront technology. This technology is used to correct optical aberrations (visual distortion) that can cause glare, halos, and a lesser visual quality. The TECNIS® is a diffractive lens with concentric rings of different power that provide vision at near and distance.

How does tecnis Eyhance work?

TECNIS Eyhance IOL is a next-generation IOL that elevates expectations established by the monofocal category by providing enhanced intermediate vision. TECNIS Eyhance IOL defies monofocal convention of 20/20 to: Deliver significantly improved intermediate vision, along with 20/20 distance vision.

Is the Tecnis® multifocal intraocular lens patient acceptable?

The Tecnis®Multifocal Intraocular Lens incorporates an aspheric, modified anterior prolate IOL with a diffractive multifocal lens design. The design aims to minimize spherical aberration and improve range of focus. The purpose of this review is to assess patient acceptability of the Tecnis®multifocal intraocular lens.

What is the reading distance of the Tecnis multifocal IOL?

not present Lens Model Approximate Reading Distance “Readers” Comparison Monofocal IOLs None None TECNIS Multifocal Model ZKB00 (+2.75 D) 50 cm (20 inches) +2.00 TECNIS Multifocal Model ZLB00 (+3.25 D) 42 cm (16 inches) +2.50 TECNIS Multifocal Model ZMB00 (+4.00 D) 33 cm (13 inches) +3.00

Should I get a multifocal or monofocal IOL?

Also, if you have a pre-existing visual condition other than cataracts that impacts your vision in one or both eyes ( macular degeneration, for example), you generally will be happier with basic monofocal IOLs instead of multifocal IOLs, which require good visual capability in both eyes for best outcomes.

Are Tecnis lenses good for night vision?

Tecnis Multifocal Lens Review. Surgeons have noticed that patients complain less about night-vision problems, glare and halos with lower-add multifocal lenses, and the information bears this out. In the FDA research study of the Tecnis 2.75 D for example, the lens had fewer night-vision complaints than the 3.25-D.
