Introducing the Types of Presbyopia and Cataract Intraocular Lenses at Smile Eye Clinic

Cataracts are a common eye disease that often occurs with age.

According to statistics released by the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) and the National Health Insurance Service,

cataracts, which rank as the number one disease among the elderly,

are now affecting younger age groups.

It is advisable for all of us to be vigilant about our eye health

and strive to prevent cataracts and presbyopia.

▲ Definitions of presbyopia and cataracts, and surgical methods

Today, we will explore the types of presbyopia and cataract intraocular lenses

available at Smile Eye Clinic.

Presbyopia and Cataract PanOptix Intraocular Lens

The PanOptix intraocular lens, developed by Alcon in the USA,

can provide focus for near, intermediate, and far distances.

It addresses the shortcomings of previous multifocal intraocular lenses, such as glare

and reduced near vision, by offering a total of four focal points.

It also boasts excellent rotational stability,

making its astigmatism correction effect outstanding.

The PanOptix intraocular lens allows for continuous focus up to a distance of about 40-60cm,

making near-distance tasks like using computers or laptops easy.

It is also known as an intraocular lens that can block UV rays and blue light.

Presbyopia and Cataract FineVision Intraocular Lens

Developed by Physiol, a company that created the trifocal lens, this intraocular lens

provides bright and clear vision at all distances—near, intermediate, and far—without glasses.

It can adjust the light energy ratio from far to near depending on pupil size,

providing satisfactory far vision even at night.

With a single surgery, it can correct presbyopia, astigmatism up to 6D,

and cataracts!

Presbyopia and Cataract Lentis Comfort Intraocular Lens

The Lentis Comfort intraocular lens, developed by German optical company Zeiss, a world-renowned optical company,

has three focal points that can secure vision for all distances, from near to far.

It is known to have been implanted in over 100,000 surgeries in Europe,

and its patented SMP technology reduces glare.

It can be inserted through a micro-incision (1.5mm),

which has the advantage of reducing changes in corneal astigmatism.

Presbyopia and Cataract Symfony Intraocular Lens

The Symfony continuous focus intraocular lens, developed by Johnson & Johnson,

can provide clear vision from near to far.

It is known as a lens that enables continuous focus with patented Echelette diffraction technology

and improved clarity through chromatic aberration correction with achromatic technology.

As a result, it guarantees high quality vision day and night

and has received approval from the U.S. FDA.

Presbyopia and Cataract Precizon Intraocular Lens

The Precizon intraocular lens, developed by Ophtec in the Netherlands,

allows for clear vision from near to far without glasses through CTF technology.

It is an intraocular lens that has the advantage of maintaining better night vision with CTF technology,

as vision tends to decrease at night due to pupil changes.

Additionally, it is a refractive multifocal lens with low light loss,

providing natural intermediate vision.

Today, we learned about the different types of presbyopia and cataract intraocular lenses

available at Smile Eye Clinic.

Please undergo a detailed precise examination and consult with medical professionals

to determine which intraocular lens is suitable for your eyes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the features of PanOptix intraocular lenses?

What are the advantages of FineVision intraocular lenses?

FineVision intraocular lenses provide bright and clear vision without glasses at all distances: near, intermediate, and far. They can adjust the light energy ratio according to pupil size, maintaining satisfactory distant vision even at night, and can simultaneously resolve presbyopia, astigmatism, and cataracts with a single surgery.

What are the characteristics of Lisa Tri intraocular lenses?

Lisa Tri intraocular lenses were developed by Zeiss in Germany and are trifocal lenses that can secure vision from near to far distances. Patented SMP technology reduces glare, and they can be inserted through a micro-incision, which has the advantage of reducing corneal astigmatism changes.

What technology is applied in Symfony intraocular lenses?

Symfony intraocular lenses are extended depth of focus intraocular lenses developed by Johnson & Johnson. Patented Echelette diffractive technology enables continuous focus, and achromatic technology corrects chromatic aberration, improving clarity. They have received US FDA approval, ensuring high quality of vision day and night.

What is the night vision improvement effect of Precizon intraocular lenses?

Precizon intraocular lenses can maintain better vision even at night through CTF technology. They compensate for the decrease in vision due to pupil changes at night and provide natural intermediate vision as a refractive multifocal lens with low light loss, allowing clear vision without glasses.

How should I choose an intraocular lens for presbyopia and cataract surgery?

The choice of intraocular lens for presbyopia and cataract surgery depends on the individual's eye condition. Smile Eye Clinic offers various types of intraocular lenses, and it is important to consult with professional medical staff after a detailed precise examination to determine the most suitable intraocular lens for you.
