Monofocal IOLs
Monofocal IOLs are used to restore vision for one area of focus-usually distance.Reading glasses may still be needed.
Multifocal IOLs
Multifocal IOLs provide high-quality vision at multiple distances, with enhanced vision at a distinct distance customised to suit the patient’s lifestyle. They may increase freedom from glasses.
Extended Depth of Focus IOLs
Extended depth of focus IOLs provide high-quality, continuous vision – from near to far and points in between – and may reduce the overall wearing of glasses.
