Trifocal Lenses, publicly known as Smart Lenses, are typically artificial technological lenses placed in lieu of the opaque eye lens during cataract surgery. Today, they are applied not only to cataract patients but also to individuals over the age of 40 experiencing high myopia, hypermetropia, and presbyopia (age-related inability to see near) under the name of "Clear Lens Exchange".
Opening the Doors to a Glasses-Free Life
The greatest feature of smart lenses is that they provide focus not just at a single focal point, but simultaneously far (while driving, at the cinema), intermediate (while using a computer, working in the kitchen), and near (while reading a book, looking at a phone). Through this, the patient can easily complete over 90% of the tasks in their daily life without any glasses support.
Who Is It Not Suitable For?
A smart lens is not a suitable treatment for every eye. Different monofocal or EDOF (extended depth of focus) lens alternatives should be evaluated in our patients under the following conditions:
- Those with advanced macular degeneration.
- Those experiencing glaucoma (eye pressure) and associated optic nerve damage.
- Keratoconus patients possessing a very irregular and asymmetric corneal structure.
- Occupational groups such as long-haul truck drivers who constantly work in dark environments and at night (against the possibility of light reflections).
Prior to this operation, which will radically transform your quality of life from top to bottom, your eye topography, endothelial cell count, and optical biometrics are scrutinized in detail with the world's most advanced measurement devices in our clinic. Our expert surgeons will recommend the most flawless lens type for your eye structure.
