What are smart lens surgeries? A person’s natural lens (lens) is an aging lens. After the age of 40, the close harmony of this natural lens in our eyes is impaired and glasses are needed. After the age of 50, this lens begins to lose its transparency and cataract begins. In fact, smart lens (multifocal intraocular lens) surgery is the process of replacing the patient’s natural, but not well-functioning, deteriorated, aged lens with a custom-made artificial lens, as in cataract surgery. These lenses can be multifocal, 2-focal or 3-focal. Smart lens surgeries can be applied to anyone who uses distant or near glasses after the age of 40 and wants to continue their life without glasses. Since the patients also get rid of the cataract after the surgery, the eye number does not change anymore and the patient does not develop cataracts again. Smart lens surgeries are performed on 2 eyes on 2 separate days. It does not require hospitalization and any anesthetic narcosis procedure, local drop anesthesia is used.
