Thanks to the latest advancements in multifocal lens inplant
technology, cataract surgery not only allows you to ReZoom™
life, it may allow you to "see young again".
As we age, beginning around the age of 40, the natural lens inside
the eye begins to harden and lose its flexibility. This reduces
the eye’s ability to change its focus from near to intermediate,
to distance, and back again. This is known as “loss of accommodation”
or “presbyopia,” and its earliest symptom is difficulty
seeing things up close. Bifocal and even trifocal glasses become
necessary for some people to see clearly at all distances.
As the natural lens of the eye continues to deteriorate, it starts
to become cloudy or brown. Vision becomes blurry, and colors lose
their brilliance. At first, frequent changes in glasses prescriptions
can help, but left untreated, cataracts can lead to blindness. The
only way to see clearly after a cataract matures is to have it removed
and then replaced with an intraocular lens, or IOL.

The
ReZoom™ Multifocal Lens
Full Range of Vision and Greater Independence from Glasses and
Contact Lenses
|
Monofocal IOL |
ReZOOM™ Multifocal Lens |
|
Until recently, patients undergoing lens implant surgery received
a monofocal, or single focus IOL. Monofocal IOLs implanted in
both eyes generally provide excellent distance vision, while patients
often need spectacle correction for near and intermediate vision.
In the late 1990s, Advanced Medical Optics (AMO) introduced its
first multifocal IOL designed to provide multiple points of focus,
thereby dramatically reducing the need for bifocals or trifocal
glasses after surgery.
Today, with its many optical design enhancements, AMO’s
second-generation ReZoom™ Multifocal IOL is providing patients
with a full range of vision and greater independence from glasses
or contact lenses than ever before. Clinical studies show that
92% of those receiving the ReZoom™ Lens technology “never”,
or “only occasionally,” need to wear glasses.1

The
First Steps to Resuming Life
|
If you suffer from poor vision, or think you might have a cataract,
you should make an appointment to have a complete eye examination.
Once it is determined that you are a good candidate for the ReZoom™
Multifocal IOL, you will be given additional information about the
possible risks, complications, and costs involved with the procedure.
Be sure to have all of your questions answered before giving your
consent to have surgery. |
