Cataract

It develops as a result of aging.

Kids are sometimes born with cataracts due to an infection, injury, or poor development before birth, or they may develop it during childhood.

These grow as a result of other medical conditions, like diabetes, or exposure to toxic substances, certain drugs (such as corticosteroids or diuretics), ultraviolet light, or radiation.

These develop as a result of an injury to the eye.

It is a surgical procedure wherein two small incisions are made into the cornea to peel off the front layer of the lens. An ultrasonic device is inserted into the eye to break the cataract. Once the cataract is removed, an intraocular lens implant is repositioned in its place.

Multifocal IOLs are a type of prosthetic lens that come with astigmatism correction. The patient’s natural lenses are replaced with these to allow correction at all distances and make vision as natural as possible.

Trifocal lenses for cataract surgery have different zones to correct various types of vision problems. These include close-up, intermediate, and distance vision.

These lenses address both presbyopia and astigmatism at the time of cataract surgery by providing an extended range of vision, excellent distance, and intermediate vision with improved near vision.
