As we age, changes in the natural lens of the eye can lead to declining vision, and the dependence on reading or multifocal glasses. If you’re interested in spectacle independence, experiencing blurry vision, increased glare, or difficulty reading even with glasses, it may be time to consider a permanent vision correction solution.
... At this stage, the most effective procedure is Refractive Cataract Surgery or Custom Lens Replacement—both involve replacing your natural lens with an advanced multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) that restores vision at all distances. Whether you already have cataracts or want to prevent future vision deterioration, this treatment offers a long-term solution to reduce your dependence on glasses.Compare Your Vision Correction Options
Custom Lens Replacement
If you don’t yet have cataracts but there are early changes to your lens due to aging, this procedure pre-emptively replaces your natural lens before cataracts develop.
The main goal would be less dependence on spectacles. This ensures long-term clear vision and prevent the need for cataract surgery later.
Refractive Cataract Surgery
If you have cataracts, this procedure removes the cloudy lens and replaces it with a high-performance multifocal intraocular lens (IOL).
This not only restores clarity but also corrects vision for distance, intermediate, and near vision, reducing the need for glasses.
