What Is a PanOptix Intraocular Lens (IOL)?

If you’re suffering from cataracts, intraocular lenses (IOLs) can replace your clouded natural eye lenses with new artificial ones. The PanOptix lenses (IOLs) are trifocal and they allow for changes in distance vision just as natural lenses do. You’ll see things far away, mid-range, and up close. Unlike previous IOLs, PanOptix is the first and only FDA-approved trifocal lens. They give you enhanced intermediate-range vision and improved visual acuity.

Other FAQs about IOLs

What is Cataract Surgery?

When your natural eye lenses are too cloudy to see, a cataract procedure can replace them with IOL implants. It helps you get through the day without a visual barrier!

How Long Do IOL Lenses Last?

IOLs are made of biocompatible materials such as acrylic or silicone. This keeps your body from reacting negatively after surgery. They’ll never need replacement because they don’t break down over time.

Which IOL Lens Is Best?

The PanOptix IOL or lens was designed for people who live an active lifestyle. As the first and only FDA-approved trifocal lens, the PanOptix IOL  gives a fuller range of vision that other IOLs can’t match.

Tips & Insights: 4 Top Eye Issues & Ways to Prevent Them

 PanOptix IOL Lenses

What is a Premium IOL?

A standard intraocular lens implant is monofocal: it stays at a fixed distance to see far away. Premium IOL implants, including PanOptix lenses, can do more than single-vision lenses. The PanOptix trifocal design delivers superior visual abilities.

Can IOLs Correct Astigmatism?

Yes! PanOptix IOL implants are available with a toric (astigmatism-correcting) option.

Can IOLs Move?

IOL implants can dislocate during or after surgery. Sometimes, they can even fall into the vitreous cavity. The IOL is normally repositioned or sutured in place, but vitreous surgery may be required to remove it after a fall.

Can IOLs Be Replaced?

IOLs can be replaced if they shift in your eye or if the prescription didn’t match as calculated—but this is rare. It’s not necessary either because they’re built to last a lifetime.

How Do IOLs Stay in Place?

Any intraocular implant placed into your eye stays there because it’s in the eye’s capsular bag. It’s what holds your natural lens too.
