PANOPTIX multifocal lens - the ideal treatment for cataract
Abstract
Trifocal lenses are the latest artificial lenses available today for cataract surgery. The ACRYSOF® IQ PANOPTIX® Artificial Trifocal Lens is specially designed to see clearly after cataract surgery based on experience with over 100 million lenses implanted worldwide. A study found that 94.8% of patients who chose these lenses did not wear glasses for distance vision. Compared to other trifocal lenses, it allows a clear view at a more appropriate and natural intermediate distance, 60 centimeters. It`s a good alternative for correcting visual acuity in cataract and refractive surgery. Requires rigorous and precise surgical technique as it treats both ametropia and presbyopia.
