We will remove the clouded lens that contains the cataract if you choose to have cataract surgery and replace it with an intraocular lens implant (IOL) that functions very similarly to a natural lens. We provide multifocal cataract lenses because they can greatly enhance vision for patients with cataracts.

Some varieties of multifocal lenses concentrate more on distance and intermediate vision, necessitating the usage of reading glasses for closely held reading material. Other multifocal IOLs, on the other hand, concentrate more on close near vision, necessitating the use of glasses for intermediate vision.
