Whether reading your smartphone or a newspaper: in the meantime if you have to read the text at an ever-increasing distance, then here is the vision impairement in the close range. From a certain point in time, usually between the age of 40 and 50, everyone depends on reading glasses. Even those who have never had to deal with this topic before.
The use of trifocal/multifocal lenses is a first-class method of correcting your presbyopia and enables you to live a life long without glasses. You can feel safe with us: EuroEyes has performed most trifocal lens implantations worldwide. The blade-free implantation is also carried out with the help of LenSx – the most advanced technology on the market.
Presbyopia typically develops between the ages of 40 and 50: small print becomes increasingly hard to read, and you become dependent on reading glasses. Even if you have suffered from nearsightedness or farsightedness earlier in your life, you will eventually develop presbyopia, and will need bifocals or several glasses.
The implantation of the multifocal lens, also known as multifocal intraocular lens, is a safe, precise, and tested procedure for the correction of presbyopia. Basically, the natural lens of the eye is replaced with an artificial lens. This Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is a proven procedure as it has been used for decades in cataract treatments. The cataract treatment is the most commonly performed surgery in the world. You can therefore approach your treatment with a clear conscience.
The multifocal lens is a highly developed artificial lens with several focal points, and it thereby enables clear vision in various distances – without the need for glasses. This well tolerated lens can permanently stay in the eye and is not visible. In addition to presbyopia the correction of myopia, farsightedness and astigmatism can be possible with artificial lenses.
You can feel safe with us: EuroEyes has performed the most intraocular lens implants in Germany and can prove many years of experience. Blade-free implantation is also performed using LenSx laser – the most advanced technology on the market.
Clinical studies show that 97% of all patients who received trifocal/multifocal lens exchange surgery on both eyes no longer need glasses ever after: reading, shopping, PC work, driving a car, also shaving and make-up application are finally possible again without glasses.
The trifocal and multifocal lenses used by EuroEyes are premium lenses that meet the highest quality standards:
Preparing the Eye
This outpatient procedure typically lasts 10 minutes per eye. Eye drop anesthetics create a pain free procedure. The eye is opened with a key-hole incision in the corneal periphery that heals without a suture.
Removing the Lens
The fibrous lens capsule behind the pupil is opened in a circular manner and the eys's lens core is removed. The capsule then functions as supporting tissue for the implanted artificial lens. Each patient receives a custom-made artificial lens implant that has lifetime durability.
Trifocal and multifocal lens
All patients receive a custom-made artificial trifocal/multifocal lens, manufactured especially for their eye. This well-tolerated artificial lens has lifelong durability and is not visible.
Implanting the trifocal/multifocal lens
The surgeon inserts the injector holding the artificial lens through the key-hole incision into the eye. The lens unfolds and is positioned by the surgeon into the vacant lens capsule. The trifocal/multifocal lens corrects presbyopia in addition to other existing vision disorders (near-, farsightedness and astigmatism).
To enable an even greater accuracy and perfection, EuroEyes uses the LenSx® femtosecond laser for the surgical procedure, which takes several essential steps of the lens surgery that were previously performed manually by the surgeon.
This laser eye treatment used for lens exchange, allows a painless and precise dissection of different layers of tissue in the eye. It thus offers two advantages over the manual technique: first of all, the lens exchange is precise because the trifocal/multifocal lens can be positioned accurately, and second of all, safer because the laser incisions are more precise than hand-guided incisions.
EuroEyes is one of the first LASIK clinical groups in Germany to apply the LenSx® in the field of laser lens exchange.
