Who Can Apply to Smart Lens?

With age, usually after the age of 40, the adaptation of our intraocular lens to near deteriorates and near vision impairment, which we call presbyopia, occurs. We try to correct the power of the lens, which is not sufficient for near vision, with near glasses. For many people, this process is a bit difficult; it can be physically and psychologically disturbing for an individual who has not used glasses before to start wearing glasses for close-up. Over the years, the number of close-up glasses increases in direct proportion to the decrease in the accommodation power of the intraocular lens and reaches higher numbers. This situation can become even more unpleasant if it is accompanied by defects in distance vision in our eyes. It may be necessary to use two separate glasses for both distance and near vision.

DISTANCE, NEAR AND ASTIGMAT CAN BE TREATED

Thanks to new developments in technology, our patients can now It is possible to correct the majority of refractive errors at any age. Smart Lenses (Intraocular Permanent Lens) showing far, near and middle distance, which are applied to elderly patients with low vision and diagnosed with cataract, can now eliminate the refractive errors of younger patients.

THREE FOCUS OF SMART LENSES HOW DOES IT MAKE LIFE EASIER?

The clarity of middle distance images, which we use a lot in our daily lives without realizing it, makes my life much easier. It is very important that we see closer than 30-40 cm when we have our mobile phone or book in our hands. However, the indicators we look at while driving or the computer on our desk are at a distance of 60-80 cm. The lenses that allow us to see both of these focuses clearly are trifocal Smart Lenses. The focus we see while driving or watching television is at a distance, and clear vision can be achieved with Smart Lenses in this image.

WHO ARE SMART LENS CANDIDATES?

The development of technology has also expanded the age group to which we apply Smart Lenses. . The most important candidates are patients over the age of 40 who do not want to use glasses for near and far vision. The second group is individuals with low vision due to cataracts. Our third group includes patients who are younger, have higher eyeglass prescriptions, and have thin corneas whose eyes are not suitable for laser.

LIFETIME SMART LENS

The application of Smart Lenses is a method similar to cataract surgery. It is a treatment method that is applied with a short operation and is permanent for a lifetime.
