TRIFOCAL INTRAOCULAR LENS TREATMENT
What is a trifocal lens?
When using the method of trifocal intraocular lens treatment, the natural crystalline lens inside the eye is removed and replaced with a lens that has more than one focal point. These lenses have different rings. Some of these rings allow for far-distance vision, while others are for near-distance vision. This way, both far and near images are directed onto the yellow spot of the eye, which provides vision. As patients suitable for treatment adapt to the lens, their dependence on glasses for both far and near distances may decrease.
Advantages Of Trifocal Lenses
Trifocal intraocular lens treatment provides clear vision at far, near, and middle distances, comparable to wearing glasses. At the same time, since the treatment involves replacing the natural crystalline lens like cataract surgery, patients with cataracts will receive cataract treatment, and for those without cataracts, cataract development will be prevented.
The selection of patients for this treatment is essential. It is important to consider what is more critical for the patient: clear near-distance vision or far-distance vision. Another important consideration when choosing a patient is the size of the patient's pupil. Since the treatment involves cataract-removal surgery, patients can address both cataracts and vision issues at far and near distances in a single session.
