How near vision can be compromised with a multifocal IOL
Patients with multifocal IOLs are implanted with an expectation that they would be spectacle or glass free for distance, intermediate and near. However, it is not uncommon for patients to land up with refractive surprise and may need glasses. Earlier in the article ' The Mystery of the Near with Presbyopia Correction IOL' ( https://www.quickguide.org/post/problem-with-near-vision ), I had written how a steep or flat cornea and a long or short axial length may impact the near

EDOF versus Monofocal Options: Navigating the Choice of IOL for Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures performed worldwide, helping millions regain clear vision each year. For patients, choosing the right Intraocular Lens (IOL) is a significant decision during this process. The two primary types are Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) lenses and Monofocal lenses. Understanding the differences between these options can empower patients to make informed choices that fit their lifestyles and vision needs.
