Lens Implants

The natural lens of the eye is removed during cataract surgery and is replaced by an artificial lens implant. There are a variety of lens styles and materials available. Our goal before surgery is to determine the lens that best meets your visual needs.

With the increase in lens options, patients are increasingly involved in selecting the lens implant type. For many years a standard single-focus implant was routinely used and reliably restored vision. Today there are additional options for those who wish to be less dependent on glasses. These newer, high-technology lenses require additional skill, care and services and there are additional costs associated with them.
