1. Monofocal IOLs

These lenses are the most commonly used and help you see clearly at one set distance—either far, mid-range, or near.

Patients may still require glasses for reading or near vision.

Ideal for those who prioritize distance vision clarity.

2. Multifocal IOLs

Designed to provide clear vision at multiple distances (near, intermediate, and far).

Reduces dependence on glasses but may cause slight halos or glare in low-light conditions.

Suitable for individuals who want greater independence from spectacles.

3. Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) IOLs

Offer an extended range of vision with reduced glare and halos compared to multifocal lenses.

Best suited for individuals who engage in intermediate activities like computer work or driving.

Reduces the need for glasses but may still require them for fine print reading.

4. Toric IOLs

Specifically designed for patients with astigmatism.

Correct blurred vision caused by irregular corneal shape, providing sharper vision.

Helps reduce dependence on glasses post-surgery.

5. Accommodating IOLs

Mimic the eye’s natural ability to focus at different distances by shifting position in response to eye movement.

Provide a more natural range of vision but may not be as effective for reading fine print.
