Monofocal Lens in Turkey
What is Monofocal Lens?
Prime lenses may be the best choice for patients with cataracts in both eyes. A prime lens is a single fixed focal length intraocular lens. The cataract surgeon may recommend using a monofocal lens for near focus, mid-range focus, or distant focus.
There is only one of these three options and the voice will not change after surgery.
The lens, like your natural lens, focuses light entering your eye through the cornea and pupil onto the retina, the sensory tissue at the back of the eye that transmits images to the brain via the optic nerve.
Most lenses are about a third the size of a dime and are made from a flexible, bendable polymer. Your lenses, like prescription glasses, will have the necessary adjustments to give you the best vision possible.
Before the Operation
Before monofocal lens surgery, you need to understand the procedure, the risks and benefits, and to have a clear understanding of your visual needs and expectations. You should also have a comprehensive eye exam to determine your baseline visual acuity and eye health.
Additionally, you should inform the surgeon of any medical conditions and medications they are taking, as well as any allergies. It is also advisable for you to avoid wearing contact lenses for several days before the procedure.
After the Operation
After monofocal lens surgery, you may experience some discomfort and visual changes. You need to rest and follow your surgeon's instructions, including using eye drops as prescribed and avoiding strenuous activities. You may also need to wear an eye patch or protective shield.
Your vision may be blurry or hazy immediately after the procedure, but this typically improves over the first few days. It may take several weeks or even months for your vision to fully stabilize, and you may need to wear glasses for reading or other activities.
Regular follow-up appointments with the surgeon are important to monitor the healing process and ensure that your vision is improving as expected. If your experience any unusual symptoms, such as severe pain, increased redness or swelling, or worsening vision, you should contact your surgeon immediately.
