Choosing the Right Lens for Your Vision and Your Life
Choosing the right lens is one of the most important decisions in your cataract surgery journey.
Cataract surgery requires replacing your eye’s natural lens with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The lens you choose will determine how well you see after surgery — and whether you still need glasses. Dr. Manguikian will guide you through the options based on your vision goals, lifestyle, and the specific characteristics of your eye.
Monofocal Lenses
Clear vision at one distance
The standard lens option. Monofocal lenses provide clear vision at either near or far distances, but not both. Most patients who choose monofocal lenses will still need reading glasses or distance glasses after surgery.
Toric Lenses
Designed for patients with astigmatism
Toric intraocular lenses are designed for patients with astigmatism. They allow for correction of astigmatism during cataract surgery.
Extended Depth of Focus
Vivity
The Vivity lens provides distance and intermediate vision. It may be a good option for activities such as driving, using a phone, reading a dinner menu, and participating in athletic activities.
Multifocal Lenses
PanOptix
The PanOptix lens provides distance, intermediate, and near vision and may be ideal for patients seeking the greatest degree of spectacle independence.
Finding your fit
Personalized Recommendations Based on Your Lifestyle
There is no single “best” lens. The right choice depends on your vision goals, lifestyle, hobbies, and personal preferences. During your pre-operative consultation, Dr. Manguikian will take the time to understand what’s most important to you and help you choose the lens option that best fits your needs.
Some patients prioritize reading without glasses. Others want crisp distance vision for driving, golf, travel, or everyday activities. Dr. Manguikian will help you understand the advantages and trade-offs of each option so you can make an informed decision with confidence.
