Experience seamless, full-range vision correction with the PanOptix® Trifocal IOL at OnSight Eye Center. This advanced lens treats cataracts while addressing presbyopia, providing clear near, intermediate, and distance vision—reducing dependence on glasses and enhancing your visual freedom in daily life. It is ideal for patients seeking comprehensive vision improvement.
Achieve Optimal Vision at All Distances
The PanOptix Trifocal IOL is the first and only trifocal lens available in the United States to provide cataract patients with 20/20 vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges. Utilizing ENLIGHTEN Optical Technology, the PanOptix IOL optimizes light distribution across all three vision zones. This ensures that patients experience sharp, continuous vision at any distance, making daily activities like reading, working on a computer, and driving more comfortable. Its unique design also reduces visual disturbances like halos and glare.
You May Consider PanOptix Trifocal IOL If:
- You want to eliminate your dependence on glasses for near, intermediate, and distance vision
- You have cataracts that are impacting your daily activities and overall quality of life
- You are seeking a long-term solution for presbyopia so you can see clearly at all distances
- You want a premium lens that offers enhanced clarity with minimal visual disturbances
How is PanOptix Trifocal IOL Implanted?
Dr. Desmond will perform your PanOptix Trifocal IOL implantation as an outpatient procedure, typically taking about 15 to 30 minutes per eye. First, your eye is numbed with anesthetic drops, and you’ll be given medication to help you relax. Dr. Desmond will then create a tiny incision in the cornea to access your eye’s natural lens, which is clouded by cataracts. Using advanced surgical instruments, Dr. Desmond will gently break up and remove the cataract-affected lens.
The PanOptix Trifocal IOL is then folded and inserted through the same small incision. Once inside, the lens unfolds and is precisely positioned in the lens capsule, where it will remain permanently. The incision is self-sealing, often eliminating the need for stitches, and you’ll typically notice improved vision within a day or two after surgery.
Benefits of PanOptix Trifocal IOL
Provides Full-Range Vision Correction
The PanOptix Trifocal IOL delivers sharp, 20/20 vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges. This comprehensive vision correction means patients can read, work on a computer, and drive without the need for multiple pairs of glasses, offering true visual freedom.
Reduces Dependence on Glasses
Unlike traditional lenses that only correct vision for one distance, the PanOptix Trifocal IOL reduces or even eliminates the need for glasses or contact lenses after cataract surgery. Patients can enjoy clear vision across all distances, making everyday tasks more natural.
Minimizes Visual Disturbances
The PanOptix IOL is engineered with advanced ENLIGHTEN Optical Technology, which optimizes light distribution and minimizes common visual disturbances like halos, glare, and starbursts. This ensures a more comfortable visual experience, even in low-light conditions.
Enhances Long-Term Visual Clarity
Made from Alcon’s proprietary Clareon material, the PanOptix Trifocal IOL offers exceptional long-term clarity and stability. This material reduces the risk of glistening or surface haze over time, ensuring that patients maintain high-quality vision for years after their cataract surgery.
What Results Can Be Expected From PanOptix Trifocal IOL?
After your PanOptix Trifocal IOL surgery, you can expect significant improvements in your vision within a few days. Most patients achieve 20/20 vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges, often eliminating the need for glasses. Your vision will continue to stabilize over the first few weeks, with optimal results typically seen within a month. You may experience some mild visual disturbances, like halos or glare, during the initial adjustment period, but these usually diminish over time, leaving you with clear, uninterrupted vision.
