    ■Types of intraocular lenses

    (1)Monofocal lens / Astigmatism correction lens (Insurance coverage)

    (2)Multifocal lens

    After the surgery, your eyes will loose the ability to focus by itself. You will need a glasses for short distance if you choose an intraocular lens with long distance, or glasses for long distance if you choose the lens with short distance.
    Multifocal lens do not always make your vision as clear as you were young, so there is a possibility that you need a glassses. Discuss with the doctor to determine what’s best for you.
