IOL RIGHT EYE / CORTICAL CATARACT LEFT EYE
- 1.Notice two white spots reflects on the retro illumination are due to the IOL into the eye.
- 2.Cortical cataract into the left eye
IOL BOTH EYE / POSTERIOR CATARACT LEFT EYE
- 1.Notice two white spots reflects on the retro illumination are due to the IOL into the eye.
- 2.Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are medical devices that are implanted inside the eye to replace the eye’s natural lens when it is removed during cataract surgery.
MULTIFOCAL IOL LEFT EYE
- 1.No lens opacity into the right eye
- 2.The two white spot show an IOL into the eye. Notice the different zones of near & far vision on the multifocal IOL
POSTERIOR CATARACT LEFT EYE
Using the zoom function , you will see:
- 1.A multifocal contact lenses, these premium IOLs contain added magnification in different parts of the lens to expand your range of vision so you can see objects clearly at all distances without glasses or contact lenses. Notice the different zones of near & far vision on the multifocal IOL.
- 2.On the upper side of the retro image you see a Posterior capsular opacification (PCO). The PCO occurs when a cloudy layer of scar tissue forms behind your lens implant. This may cause you to have blurry or hazy vision, or to see a lot of glare from lights. PCO is fairly common after cataract surgery, occurring in about 20% of patients.
IOL BOTH EYE / POSTERIOR CATARACT LEFT EYE
- 1.Notice two white spots reflects on the retro illumination are due to the IOL into the eye
- 2.PCO is treated by a very low risk, quick, painless laser treatment.
This treatment focuses the laser exactly onto the back of the lens capsule in order to cut away a small circle-shaped area. This leaves some of the capsule to keep your artificial lens in place (like a cuff around the lens), but removes enough in the middle to allow the light to pass directly through to the retina.
TORIC IOL BOTH EYE
Toric IOLs can correct astigmatism because they have different powers in different meridians of the lens.
They also have alignment markings on the peripheral part of the lens that enable the surgeon to adjust the orientation of the IOL inside the eye for optimal astigmatism correction.
VERIFY THE AXIS OF A TORIC IMPLANT POST-OPERATIVELY
Toric IOLs have special markers on the peripheral parts of the lens that enable the surgeon to see the orientation of the astigmatism correction in the lens.
Once the toric IOL is implanted in the eye, the surgeon then rotates the lens so the astigmatism correction is properly aligned for best results.
