About this deal

At this appointment, you may be given advice on when to stop using your eye drops and when to apply for new glasses. How to apply eye drops There is often a learning curve associated with these lenses but within a few weeks, patients can often see clearly for distance and near tasks. It must be stated, however, that these lenses function their best in good light. They sometimes perform less well in dim light.

These lenses carry significant extra cost because of their design complexity and relative rarity. They work by simultaneously providing the eye with three focal lengths of vision; distance, intermediate (computer screens) and near and then asking your eye and brain to “tune in” to which objects it wants to see. These state of the art implants potentially allow for complete freedom of glasses. However, in practice, most patients feel that they are less dependent on glasses but still occasionally use them for prolonged periods of close work, such as reading a good book. During the operation, you’ll just experience a bright light, sensations or water around the eye and you’ll hear our theatre music. You don’t see any of the “work” happening. Some patients even see kaleidoscopic colours and patterns during surgery. When the operation is complete, you’ll sit up with a clear eye shield over the eye.

I definitely recommend patients ask their surgeon which lens they think is right for them. Your surgeon will have many years of experience and will know what is most appropriate for your eye, lifestyle and expectations. There is a lot of science here but lens selection is also an art and a skill. If you work, how soon you can return will largely depend on your type of job and if you need new glasses. Using your eye drops The glasses I choose to wear are from the RNIB – However, there are a lot of other companies and organisation out there providing both Wrap Arounds and Fit Overs. The glasses in this post can be found here at the Royal National Institute for The Blind You'll be advised further about the use of eye drops at your follow-up appointment, usually 1 to 4 weeks after your operation. Approximately 5-10% of patients are also aware of “rings” or “circles” in their vision when viewing bright lights such as car brake lights. These rings emanate from the circular zones on the lens surface which allow for the trifocality. The glare from these rings is rarely troublesome but can be noticeable.

Some patients aged 45+ may also be eligible for refractive lens exchange ( RLE). RLE is essentially a cataract operation, but it is performed before a cataract has formed to reduce dependence on glasses.

These side effects usually improve within a few days, but it can take 4 to 6 weeks to recover fully. They have no “shelf life”. Once implanted they will last a lifetime and do not require changing in the future. A cataract is the age-related clouding of the lens inside our eye. It tends to occur when we reach 60 years or older but itcan occur at a younger age in rarer circumstances. Cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a precision-made implant. Before you leave hospital, you'll be given some eye drops to help your eye heal and prevent infection. Nowadays, there are many to choose from and the right one for you will depend on many factors, including your specific visual needs. Mr Dan Lindfield, a leading consultant ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon in Guildford and Farnham, Surrey explains the pros and cons of the different types of IOLs and what to expect before and after surgery.

The dominant eye is set for distance and the non-dominant eye is set for varying amounts of nearer vision. The two eyes perform different tasks when measured on their own but when both eyes are open they allow a seamless range of vision. The ability to read without glasses depends on how close-focussed the non-dominant eye is set. Mr Dan Lindfield is a multi-award-winning consultant ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon in Guildford and Farnham. To make an appointment with him, head to his Top Doctors profile. Green tint, like amber, gives high contrast for all eye conditions but can be worn indoors as well as outdoors. It’s also suitable when other tint colours ‘feel too bright’. Green tint is also the best colour tint if you suffer wit migraines at all, wether visually impaired or not. Cataract surgery has a high success rate in improving your eyesight and should allow you to return to your normal activities, like driving. When to seek help They are available in small incremental strengths to enable surgeons to leave patients as close to their perfect prescription as possible. Aiming for a prescription of 0.00 means that distance activities can be seen without glasses - this includes day to day life, driving and TV.You may have a pad and plastic shield over your treated eye when you leave hospital, which can usually be removed the day after surgery. Mr Dan Lindfield is a multi-award-winning consultant ophthalmologist and cataract surgeonin Guildford and Farnham who specialises in cataracts, glaucoma surgery, including laser therapies for glaucoma, such as SLT, trabeculectomy, and minimally-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). Mr Lindfield has a passion for training the next generation of ophthalmologists and is a training programme directorfor Health Education England (HEE) and is responsible for teaching trainee eye surgeons across Kent, Surrey, and Sussex. Heis also regarded as an expert trainer in cataract surgery. Patient satisfaction with monofocal lenses is high and very few negative effects have been reported. However, enablinga change of focal length (e.g. for reading or computer use) often requires the addition of reading glasses.
