Advanced Lens Implants

Customized IOLs

At nJoy Vision in OKC, various basic and premium Advanced Lens Implants or Intraocular Lenses (IOLs) are offered that can be customized to suit your specific condition and lifestyle for Lens Replacement or Cataract Surgery. Our board-certified eye surgeons specialize in using the latest generation lenses to treat diferent types of vision problems for patients from the Oklahoma City metro area, including Norman, Moore, Edmond, and surrounding areas. They can help determine the IOL that’s right for you.

Light Adjustable Lens

The RxSight™ Light Adjustable Lens is the first and only intraocular lens (IOL) that can be customized after surgery. The Light Adjustable Lens is made of a special photosensitive material that can be adjusted in response to ultraviolet (UV) light. This optimization is done in the weeks following lens implantation through a series of non-invasive light treatments that take only a few minutes each. You will have the unique ability to adjust and preview your vision until it meets your personal desires and lifestyle requirements. The Light Adjustable Lens delivers superior visual outcomes that non-adjustable lenses simply cannot match.  Imagine being able to test-drive your vision after surgery and having the ability to tailor your vision to your exact needs—that’s now possible with the Light Adjustable Lens.

Multifocal IOL

Multifocal IOLs provide both distance and near focus at the same time. The lens has different zones set at different powers and is designed so that your brain learns to select the right focus automatically. With multiple points of focus, one image is in focus at a time. There are several options available now in the U.S. and at nJoy Vision, our surgeons will determine along with you, which implant is best for your vision and your goals.

The TECNIS Odyssey™ IOL is a next generation continuous range of vision lens to correct for distance, intermediate and near. This full visual range IOL ensures crisp and clear vision, allowing you to see with clarity at every distance – whether you are reading, driving or engaging in daily activities – minimizing your need for glasses.

The Clarion^® IQ PanOptix^® Pro IOL is a trifocal IOL that has the ability to provide enhanced vision for distance, intermediate and near. It is a type of multifocal IOL used to focus images clearly onto the back of your eye (retina) to allow clear vision after the cataract removal. In addition, the center of the Clarion^® IQ PanOptix^® Pro IOL allows for better near (reading) vision and intermediate (computer work) vision versus what a monofocal lens would provide.

The enVista Envy™ is a next-generation trifocal IOL designed to provide a full range of vision across three focal points – near, intermediate and far.  Patients can enjoy tasks like driving, using a computer and reading with less dependence on the need for glasses.

Advanced Technology Extended Depth of Focus IOL

Extended depth of Focus IOLs allow for good distance and intermediate vision.  These lenses reduce the glare and halos that may be experienced with multifocal IOLs.  These lenses may be used in patients with some eye conditions which may limit the ability to use a Light Adjustable or Multifocal IOL, or they may be preferred by patients that want to focus on the best distance and computer vision and don’t mind wearing reading glasses on occasion.

The TECNIS PureSee™ IOL is an extended depth of focus IOL that is the first and only FDA-approved extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL maintaining contrast sensitivity comparable to a monofocal IOL.  It delivers clarity of vision for distance and intermediate tasks and has reduce visual disturbances, like halos or glare.

The Clarion® Vivity™ Extended Vision IOL provides clear distance vision (e.g., for watching children playing in the backyard). In addition, the AcrySof® IQ Vivity™ Extended Vision IOL allows for better intermediate (working on a computer, applying makeup or shaving) and some near (reading, knitting) vision compared to what a monofocal IOL would provide. The AcrySof® IQ Vivity™ IOL is not a multifocal IOL, as it uses Wavefront-Shaping technology to provide the broader range of vision.

The Apthera™ IOL is the first small aperture presbyopia-correcting lens that delivers extended depth of focus through its distinctive design. It is designed to be paired with a monofocal or monofocal toric IOL in your other eye, allowing you to see with excellent vision, from near to far. This lens features a smaller opening that lets light into your eye and can extend your range of clear vision, providing better eyesight for near, intermediate and distance tasks. It can significantly reduce your need for glasses in various situations.

Accommodating IOL

Crystalens® AO Lens is an artificial lens implant that can treat both a person’s cataracts and presbyopia — the clouding or hardening of your lenses, and the loss of near and intermediate vision, respectively. Crystalens was modeled after the human eye. Like the natural lens, it is a lens implant that uses the eye muscle to flex and accommodate in order to focus on objects in the environment at all distances. Crystalens dynamically adjusts to your visual needs. Many patients will have greater freedom from glasses after surgery, but you may still need reading glasses for small print or other near vision tasks.  The Crystalens® AO Lens may have less halos and glare when compared to multifocal IOL options.

Toric IOL for astigmatism

Basic lens implants are not able to adjust for astigmatism (an imperfection in the curvature of your cornea) which may also be affecting your vision. Toric IOLs are able to correct for astigmatism and, therefore, give you a better chance of good distance vision without glasses or contacts after your surgery.

Basic Monofocal IOL

Monofocal IOLs are basic artificial lenses that have one focusing distance. Your choice depends on what type of vision is most important to you—up close (reading), medium range (computer screen), or distance vision (driving). A monofocal IOL that results in clear distance vision can be supplemented by wearing glasses for reading and other close-range needs.

There are many available monofocal IOLs, including the new TECNIS Eyhance™ IOL that defies conventional thinking about monofocal IOLs by delivering not only high-quality distance vision, but also better low-light image contrast. These enhanced monofocal IOLs continue to develop to allow better vision outcomes for patients seeking basic cataract surgery.
