Can get cataract surgery with an EDOF lens implant?

Dear Rajesh Verma ji,

You have a cataract and want to undergo surgery with an EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) lens, this can be an option for selected patients. EDOF lenses are designed to provide a broader range of vision, particularly distance and intermediate vision, and may reduce dependence on glasses. However, they do not guarantee complete freedom from glasses  near/reading vision is typically the area where they're weakest, and reading glasses may still be needed for fine print.

Before choosing an EDOF lens, an ophthalmologist should examine your eyes and assess your cornea, retina, eye power, and other eye conditions. EDOF lenses generally cause fewer visual disturbances than older multifocal or trifocal lenses, but they can still cause glare, halos, or difficulty with night vision in some patients particularly while driving at night.

Cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy natural lens and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens. The appropriate lens power is selected after detailed measurements of the eye.

We can help you connect with suitable doctors and our partner hospitals for cataract consultation and surgery.

Please share your city and state, and let us know whether you need surgery for one eye or both eyes. We can guide you regarding suitable partner hospital options and consultation for an EDOF lens.
