WITH MULTIFOCAL LENSES, YOU CAN GET RID OF YOUR FAR AND NEAR GLASSES

It is possible to get rid of distant glasses with special lenses that can be used in cataract surgery. These lenses have various features and can be evaluated and selected with the patient depending on the needs, profession, and daily living conditions. The distant close distance and even the middle distance can be corrected according to the needs of the patient.

For example, someone working on the bench at a distance of 1 meter needs more correction of the middle distance, while people who work at closer distances like 35-40 cm like handwork may need more correction of the close range. While there are not many options in eyes with high astigmatism in the past, patients with high astigmatism can benefit from these innovations today.

The application is done in the same way as standard cataract surgery. The operation can usually be done only after the application of drops to the eyes. The painless procedure for patients usually takes about 15-20 minutes for one eye. For these lenses, which have gained speed in recent years, choosing the appropriate patient is as important as the procedure itself. This method may not be applied in disorders that will cause diabetes and some chronic eye diseases. Treatment of bleeding in the retinal layer, which may occur in the future, especially in patients with diabetes, may be more difficult in eyes with this lens. Similarly, if there is a discomfort in the transparent layer of your eye, these lenses cannot be applied again.

The most common side effect related to these lenses is glare and halo at night. This complaint can usually be tolerated by the patient after 3-4 months. Your doctor can determine whether you are eligible for this method after a detailed eye examination.
