Premium Lenses in Sedalia, MO

What Are Premium IOLs?

Premium intraocular lenses, or IOLs, are artificial lenses that often accompany cataract surgery. IOLs are used to replace the natural lens of the eye that has clouded over due to a cataract. These lenses can help improve your vision, as well as a number of other eye conditions, such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia (age-related farsightedness), astigmatism (irregular corneal shape), and more. At Discover Vision: Sedalia Eye Associates, we are proud to offer premium IOLs to help meet each of our patient’s needs. For more information about how premium IOLs can help correct your vision issues, contact our Sedalia or Warsaw, MO office today.

What Are the Different Types of IOLs?

Our team has a great deal of experience performing cataract surgery. During this procedure, we may use one of many interocular lenses. To determine which lens is best for you, we will work with you during a consultation to get more information on your lifestyle, budget, and vision needs before creating a treatment plan. The IOL options offered at Discover Vision: Sedalia Eye Associates include:

Multifocal IOLs: These premium lenses help improve a patient’s full-range vision for sharper focus at near, intermediate, and longer distances. Additionally, they can reduce astigmatism and even minimize dependence on glasses.
Accommodative IOLs: When the eye muscles bend to enhance the eye’s optical abilities is a process called accommodation. Accommodative IOLs mimic this process by flexing your eye and enhancing your ability to see more clearly.
Extended Range IOLs: This newer IOL helps enhance near and intermediate vision for patients who have presbyopia. With this option, patients are able to maintain distance vision so they can see a range of distances.
Toric IOLs: Toric IOLs are monofocal lenses that offer a premium solution to correct near- and farsightedness, including age-related farsightedness. While glasses may still be needed for some tasks, vision issues, including astigmatism, should greatly improve.
Standard IOLs: Standard IOLs are a basic lens replacement option. They are monofocal implants that are used to correct a single focal point, which is often distance. Vision will be clearer, but glasses will likely still be needed for normal everyday activities.
