Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic introduces the Clareon PanOptix lens, an advanced multifocal intraocular lens for cataract surgery, offering superior vision and safety.

Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic: What is Clareon PanOptix?
Hello, this is Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic.
We are pleased to announce the new introduction of the ‘Clareon PanOptix’ lens at our clinic.

Clareon PanOptix is a multifocal intraocular lens used in cataract surgery.
It is an intraocular lens developed by Alcon, the world's largest ophthalmic company, based in the USA.
With technology backed by 120 million eye surgeries worldwide, its stability is a significant advantage, offering peace of mind.

It received the ‘Best Medical Technology Award’ at PRIX GALIEN USA for innovative drug development and scientific and technological achievements in medical devices and pharmaceutical products.
In Korea, its effectiveness and safety were proven through joint clinical trials at four university hospitals.

The Clareon PanOptix lens can be considered an upgraded version of the existing PanOptix lens used in cataract surgery.
It is a multifocal intraocular lens that applies a quad-focal principle, providing seamless vision even at intermediate distances of 40-80cm.
This makes it more suitable than existing bi-focal or tri-focal lenses for Koreans who frequently engage in intermediate-distance tasks.
With improved lens material and manufacturing processes, it minimizes glare, enhances night vision, and improves blue light filtering technology.
It is an excellent lens for improving the quality of vision and protecting retinal function.

Who needs multifocal intraocular lens implantation?
Cataract refers to the condition where the normally transparent lens becomes cloudy due to various causes.
Blurred vision is typically the most common symptom.

In the early stages, cataracts may not cause significant discomfort in daily life.
However, once the lens becomes cloudy, it cannot return to its previous state.
If you experience double vision, or if bright places or lights cause glare and difficulty in daily life, you should consider cataract surgery.

In the past, the focus was solely on improving the cataract condition itself.
However, beyond improving the symptoms of a cloudy lens, more people are now hoping to also correct presbyopia and achieve clear distant vision.

The advantage of multifocal intraocular lenses is that a single surgery can simultaneously correct cataracts and refractive errors such as presbyopia, myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia.
We highly recommend multifocal intraocular lenses, especially for those whose occupations involve a lot of close-up work, or who engage in many outdoor activities or hobbies.
To this end, it is crucial to carefully consider one's occupation, hobbies, age, and eye condition to select the appropriate intraocular lens.

The Clareon PanOptix lens is a continuous vision lens, providing clear vision at all distances.
Additionally, contrast sensitivity and vision quality vary depending on light utilization. This intraocular lens utilizes 88% of light, resulting in less glare and good night vision.

Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic provides personalized surgical plans and consultations, enhancing surgical safety and satisfaction with lenses suitable for each individual's eyes, situation, and occupation.
To precisely understand each patient's eye condition, we conduct examinations using advanced equipment comparable to university hospitals.
Based on the examination results, we provide consultations and check considerations for your living environment.
In addition to Clareon PanOptix, Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic offers a variety of international intraocular lenses.
Our experienced ophthalmologists, with diverse expertise, strive to provide safe surgeries tailored to your eyes and situation, aiming for a more convenient daily life and a higher quality of life.
