Lens Options For Cataract Surgery

Experience advanced lens technology. Your eyes will thank you.

Cataract surgery offers more than just clearer vision — it can transform the way you see the world. During your procedure, we replace the clouded natural lens of your eye with an intraocular lens (IOL), which helps focus light onto the retina.

Durrie Vision uses advanced technology IOLs that allow us to fine-tune how the light is focused, correcting for common vision issues like presbyopia, nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism — all during cataract surgery. The result is reduced or even eliminated dependence on glasses, bifocals, or reading glasses, giving you greater visual freedom and a better quality of life.

Advanced Technology Intraocular Lens Options For Cataract Surgery

Intraocular lenses are artificial lenses that are implanted during cataract surgery to replace the clouded lens.

There are several types of premium IOLs available today, each offering unique benefits. The right lens for you will depend on your vision goals, daily activities, and overall eye health. During your consultation, we’ll guide you through your options and create a customized treatment plan.

Monofocal (Aspheric) IOLs

Monofocal or aspheric IOLs deliver sharp, clear vision at a single distance — near, intermediate, or far. They can be combined between eyes with different focal points or paired with other lens types to create a customized range of vision tailored to your needs.

Multifocal IOLs

Designed to provide clear vision at multiple distances, Multifocal IOLs distribute light across different focal points, helping you seamlessly shift between tasks like reading, using a computer, or driving.

Astigmatism-Correcting (Toric) IOLs

Astigmatism is a common vision condition caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, causing blurred or distorted vision. Toric IOLs are specialized intraocular lenses used to correct astigmatism during cataract surgery.

Light Adjustable Lenses™ (LAL)

Light Adjustable Lenses™ (LAL) offer the unique ability to fine-tune your vision after cataract surgery. Through a series of brief follow-up visits, the lens is customized using UV light to achieve optimal vision.

Durrie Vision uses superior intraocular lenses during refractive cataract surgery, including lens options from PanOptix®, Clareon®, Tecnis Odyssey™, and RxSight®.

“I was impressed with the amount of detailed testing they did at my initial consultation. I had a great experience the day of my LASIK procedure with all of the staff. The results are amazing for such a quick procedure!”

Melissa S

“After 25+ years of glasses and contacts, all it took was about 10 minutes of surgery to correct my vision. Everyone was friendly and easy to work with throughout the process. To anyone considering getting their vision corrected, I give my highest recommendation to Durrie Vision.”

Brad

“Walked into the office unable to see the Snellen chart, walked out after SBK seeing 20/30, which improved to 20/15 at my next day follow-up. The entire process was seamless and professional, and the results are absolutely unbelievable. Had no idea my vision could ever be this clear.”

Kristin

“Quick, easy, friendly! Dr. Stahl did my SBK and I was seeing 20/15 the next morning! Amazing!”

Madalyn

“I had LASIK done last week and I am very pleased. I had never worn contacts and was not comfortable touching my eyes so I was nervous, but they provide Valium to ease nerves  It was easier than I expected. They say you’re in surgery for eight minutes but it didn’t even feel that long.”

Michael

“From the time that I walked into the building for my consultation until I walked out from my post-operation check-up, I was extremely impressed with the level of care. The attention to detail, the technology used to treat my astigmatism and the affordable cost, all were things that stood out.”
