Cataract Surgery
It’s incredibly common for your eyes to develop cataracts, but thanks to the talented team at DLV Vision, we can stop them from affecting your vision! The only way to truly restore your eyesight after the development of cataracts is through surgery, but don’t worry — you can rely on our doctors’ skill and precision to bring you the clarity you deserve.
Multifocal and Trifocal Lenses
The AcrySof® IQ PanOptix® trifocal lenses improve vision at all distances, offering greater independence from glasses and making them extremely beneficial to patients who have myopia and presbyopia.
Extended Depth of Focus Lenses (EDOF)
An IOL that enhances distance and intermediate vision, the Clareon® Vivity® IOL uses unique technology to capture all available light and create an extended visual range without halos, glare, or streaks.
Aspherical Lenses
Aspheric IOLs help correct spherical aberration, meaning they allow light to pass through the eye at just the right angle for overall greater clarity and contrast sensitivity — even at night.
The Softec Lens from Lenstec uses an adjustable curvature to create the ideal point of focus for the patient. This design also decreases the sensitivity that’s common in those with smaller pupils.
Standard Lenses
Standard lenses are basic, government-issued spherical lenses that are typically covered by insurance.
Our standard monofocal IOLs are a long-trusted, classic solution to cataracts that will give you clear, worry-free sight.

What are cataracts, and how do they affect vision?
Cataracts occur when the eye’s clear lens becomes cloudy, often due to aging. This cloudiness leads to symptoms such as sensitivity to light, visual halos around bright lights, double vision, difficulty seeing at night, and blurry or reduced vision.
What causes cataracts to develop?
While aging is a primary factor, other risk factors include prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays, smoking, and a family history of cataracts.
How are cataracts treated?
The definitive treatment for cataracts is surgical removal of the cloudy lens, which is then replaced with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This procedure is typically quick and performed on an outpatient basis.
What types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) are available?
Various IOL options are available, including multifocal and trifocal lenses that improve vision at all distances, and extended depth of focus (EDOF) lenses that enhance distance and intermediate vision.
What can I expect during and after cataract surgery?
Cataract surgery is typically comfortable and often results in significantly improved vision within the first few days post-surgery.
