During cataract surgery we remove the cloudy cataract lens and replace it with a clear new intraocular lens. We can use the basic insurance covered lens, however, most of our patients choose a high technology IOL, such as the Tecnis Symfony lens. The standard lens will only focus at one distance, requiring eyeglasses to see all other distances. The symfony lens gives the patient excellent clear focus over a wide range of distances. This reduces the need for glasses and gives a more natural and youthful range of focus. There is a once in a lifetime opportunity to select the best lens for your cataract surgery and Dr Segal will guide you in making this important decision. The following video describes the advanced features of this lens.
