IOLs
What Are IOLs?
Intraocular lenses, or IOLs, are surgically placed in your eyes once cataracts are removed, restoring the clear vision compromised by the condition. Our team provides various IOL options, customizing each treatment to meet the specific vision requirements of our patients. These options range from toric IOLs for astigmatism correction to multifocal IOLs.
At IC Laser Eye Care, we specialize in IOL procedures to enhance vision affected by nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, aiming for optimal outcomes for every individual. Contact us at any of our locations in Bensalem, PA, Philadelphia, PA, and Hamilton, NJ, or at Suburban Eye Associates in Huntingdon Valley, PA for further details on these advanced IOL solutions and their advantages.
What Should I Expect with IOLs?
The process of receiving IOLs is more straightforward than you might think, involving just a few key steps. Initially, your eye will be numbed, and you’ll be given medication as needed to ensure you’re comfortable during the procedure. A tiny cut is then made at the cornea’s edge, through which we’ll break up and gradually remove your natural lens in small fragments. You might experience a slight sensation of pressure at this stage. After fully extracting your natural lens, we’ll place the new light-adjustable lens. Post-procedure, you’ll be able to head home with the assistance of a friend or family member after spending roughly an hour in recovery. The lens will naturally heal over time.
