Ophthalmology is a specialized branch of medicine focused on the health of the eyes and the visual system. Ophthalmologists are responsible for diagnosing, treating, and preventing a wide range of eye conditions, including vision impairment, inflammatory eye diseases, and structural abnormalities of the eye. The field includes comprehensive eye examinations, the prescription of glasses or contact lenses, as well as medical and surgical treatments when needed. Ophthalmology plays a crucial role in the early detection of eye diseases, the preservation of vision, and the improvement of quality of life.
Surgical ophthalmology specializes in the operative treatment of various eye conditions and vision disorders. This includes procedures such as cataract removal, surgical management of glaucoma, treatment of retinal and vitreous disorders, as well as reconstructive or cosmetic surgery of the eyelids and tear ducts. The goal of surgical ophthalmology is not only to treat diseases but also to restore or enhance vision—often using advanced technologies like laser-based techniques.
IOL planning is one of the most important preparatory steps in cataract surgery, aiming to provide the best possible visual outcome for the patient after the procedure. During the surgery—necessitated by the clouding of the natural lens—the lens is replaced with an artificial one, tailored in type and diopter to the individual's needs. The planning process considers anatomical features of the eye, previous refractive errors, visual requirements, and lifestyle. Modern diagnostic tools such as biometry, topography, and wavefront analysis help ensure accurate lens selection—whether monofocal, multifocal, or toric. A carefully planned IOL can significantly improve the likelihood of sharp, glasses-free vision after surgery.
This is a modern and reliable method of vision restoration, replacing the clouded natural lens with a premium-quality artificial lens. A monofocal IOL provides sharp vision at one set distance—typically far—while reading or intermediate distances usually still require glasses. Premium lenses offer more advanced optical designs than traditional ones, providing sharper and more contrasted vision while minimizing glare or light scattering. This procedure is especially recommended for patients who value stable, high-quality vision and don’t mind using glasses for specific tasks like reading.
This procedure offers a modern solution that enhances visual acuity over a wider range of distances, not just one focal point. EDOF lenses are a compromise between monofocal and multifocal options, providing excellent vision at distance and intermediate ranges—ideal for activities like computer use or driving—while mild reading glasses may occasionally still be needed. These lenses offer a more natural visual experience, reduce light phenomena (e.g., halos or glare), and are especially suitable for active individuals who seek a high level of independence from glasses.
o This advanced solution simultaneously addresses cataracts and astigmatism while providing clear vision across an extended focal range. Astigmatism occurs when the eye’s refractive power is uneven, causing blurred or distorted vision at various distances. These specially designed lenses combine EDOF technology with toric correction to provide sharp vision for distance and intermediate ranges—such as driving or computer use—while also effectively correcting corneal irregularities. Based on detailed preoperative measurements, the IOL is custom designed to ensure natural and stable vision post-surgery. This option is ideal for patients seeking reduced dependence on glasses and distortion-free vision in daily life.
This procedure offers a personalized solution that addresses both the removal of the clouded natural lens and the correction of astigmatism—a refractive error caused by corneal irregularity. Premium toric IOLs feature advanced optical design, improving not only sharpness but also contrast and image clarity, especially at a distance. Accurate preoperative measurements and precise alignment of the lens axis ensure optimal outcomes. This lens type is highly recommended for individuals with astigmatism who wish to reduce or eliminate their reliance on glasses for distance vision.
Cataract surgery with a premium trifocal IOL aims to fully restore vision at near, intermediate, and far distances. Thanks to their special optical design, trifocal lenses provide multiple focal points, allowing patients to perform most everyday activities—like reading, using a computer, or driving—without glasses. Premium trifocal IOLs utilize advanced light distribution technology, delivering clear, high-contrast vision in varying lighting conditions. This solution is ideal for patients with high visual expectations and those seeking an active, glasses-free lifestyle.
This advanced procedure addresses cataracts, astigmatism, and the need for clear vision at all three focal distances. Trifocal toric IOLs uniquely combine multifocal vision with toric correction, eliminating astigmatism-related refractive errors while enabling sharp vision for near, intermediate (e.g., computer use), and far (e.g., driving) distances—all without glasses. The lens is selected and aligned based on precise preoperative measurements to ensure optimal visual outcomes. This lens type is an excellent choice for patients who wish to correct both cataracts and astigmatism and desire maximum visual comfort without glasses.
