Monofocal Lens Implant

A monofocal lens implant is a lens that focuses at one distance. This implant has been used for years in cataract surgery and serves as the standard lens implant used in cataract surgery. A monofocal lens implant can be aimed for distance or near vision, but can not give both distance and near simultaneously. Glasses or contact lenses are usually still needed to tune your vision with a monofocal lens implant. Insurance covers the cost of this implant and there is no additional cost to the patient.

Astigmatism Correcting Implant

An astigmatism implant (also called Toric Implant) is a monofocal lens implant with built in astigmatism correction. This option is a great option for patients who have astigmatism and are interested in reducing the amount of astigmatism they have to improve vision both with or without glasses. A monofocal astigmatism lens implant can be aimed for distance or near vision, but can not give both distance and near simultaneously.

As this is an implant designed for additional vision correction, insurance does NOT cover this implant and there is an additional fee or upgrade cost. Patients will cover the upgraded cost of this implant.

Vivity Extended Depth of Focus Implant

The Vivity implant is an extended depth of focus (EDOF) lens implant. This lens was designed to focus at distance and intermediate. Reading glasses for near will still be necessary. This option is a great option for patients who want to reduce glasses after cataract surgery compared to a monofocal lens implant. This lens can also be an option for patients who are not a good candidate for a multifocal lens implant.
