Restore everyday clarity with a lens plan built around your eyes, your lifestyle and your visual goals. Learn how modern cataract surgery and IOL choices work at IClinix.
Each option has its own strengths. Your specialist will match the right pathway to your eyes and lifestyle.
Clear distance vision — glasses usually needed for reading.
A reliable, widely used lens option.Extended depth of focus for smoother vision transitions.
Reduces glasses dependence for mid-range tasks like a laptop.Distance, intermediate and near vision in one lens.
Suited to patients seeking maximum spectacle independence.Corrects significant corneal astigmatism.
Can be combined with monofocal, EDOF or trifocal platforms.Every cataract operation does the same job — the cloudy lens comes out, a clear one goes in. The difference is how the lens is removed and how much is done by hand versus by laser.
Hand-made incision, ultrasound breaks up the cataract.
The proven workhorse of cataract surgery.Phaco through an incision of about 2.2mm or less.
Self-sealing, stitch-free, minimal corneal change.Femtosecond laser performs incisions and capsule opening.
Best where lens centration or astigmatism correction matters.Straight talk: for a routine cataract, well-done phaco or MICS gives excellent results. FLACS adds precision and matters most with premium lenses and in selected complex eyes — we will not recommend the costlier option if it will not help you.
Eligibility is confirmed through a detailed screening — the checklist below is a starting point.
Progressive blurring, glare or difficulty in low light
Change in glasses power without improvement in clarity
Trouble driving at night or reading small print
Clinically confirmed cataract on examination
Fit for day-care surgery under topical anaesthesia
Vision test, biometry and lifestyle discussion for the right IOL.
