Book a ConsultationWhat is a Cataract?
A cataract is when the eye’s lens, which is usually clear and transparent, gradually becomes opaque. This clouding leads to progressive and painless vision loss. Common signs of cataracts include blurry or hazy vision, increased sensitivity to light and glare, difficulty with night vision, and colours appearing faded or yellowed. These vision changes can significantly impact daily activities. Tasks such as driving, especially at night, and reading become increasingly challenging as the cataracts progress.

These lenses have a single focal point, usually set for clear distance vision. You might still need glasses for near or intermediate tasks.
These lenses provide multiple focal points, allowing you to see clearly at near, intermediate, and far distances, potentially reducing your need for glasses.
These lenses are designed to reduce spherical aberrations, providing sharper vision, especially in low-light conditions.
Material: Hydrophilic acrylic, known for its flexibility and ease of implantation.
Advantages: High water content makes them more flexible, easier to handle, and provides better biocompatibility.
Disadvantages: Higher risk of posterior capsule opacification compared to hydrophobic IOLs.
Material: Hydrophobic acrylic, which repels water and proteins.
Advantages: Lower incidence of posterior capsule opacification, better resistance to glistening.
Disadvantages: Can be less flexible, slightly more prone to glistening than hydrophilic IOLs.
These lenses offer a continuous range of vision from distance to intermediate, with some degree of near vision, aiming to reduce halos and glare.
Designed specifically to correct astigmatism, these lenses can provide sharper vision if you have significant corneal astigmatism.
