What are Intraocular Lenses (IOLs)?
An intraocular lens (IOL) is an artificial lens implanted inside the eye during cataract surgery after the cloudy natural lens has been removed. The IOL helps focus light correctly on the retina and plays an important role in restoring clear vision.
Different IOL designs provide different ranges of vision. Monofocal lenses generally provide clear vision at one primary distance, while Trifocal and EDOF lenses are designed to provide a broader range of useful vision. Toric IOLs are specifically designed to correct corneal astigmatism and can also be available in different optical designs.
The most suitable IOL depends on your eye health, corneal condition, prescription, lifestyle and visual expectations.
IOL Options for Cataract Surgery
Monofocal IOL
Designed to provide clear vision at one primary distance, most commonly distance vision. Glasses may still be needed for intermediate or near activities.
Trifocal IOL
Designed to provide vision across three useful ranges distance, intermediate and near helping reduce dependence on spectacles for selected patients.
Toric IOL
Designed to correct regular corneal astigmatism during cataract surgery. Toric IOLs can also be combined with other lens designs for suitable patients.
EDOF IOL
Extended Depth of Focus lenses are designed to provide a broader range of vision, particularly extending useful vision from distance towards intermediate ranges.
Vivity IOL
Vivity is a specific non-diffractive EDOF lens designed to extend the range of vision while maintaining distance and intermediate visual performance.
Why Choose the Right IOL?
Multiple Lens Options
Different IOL designs provide different ranges and qualities of vision.
Astigmatism Correction
Toric IOLs can address suitable cases of corneal astigmatism during cataract surgery.

Monofocal vs Trifocal vs Toric vs EDOF IOLs
Each IOL design serves a different visual requirement.
Monofocal IOLs generally provide clear vision at one selected distance. Trifocal IOLs aim to provide useful vision across distance, intermediate and near ranges. Toric IOLs are designed to correct suitable corneal astigmatism and may be available with different optical designs. EDOF IOLs extend the range of useful vision, particularly towards intermediate distances.
Your ophthalmologist will consider your eye measurements, lifestyle and visual expectations before recommending an IOL.
