Much like a multifocal lens, a trifocal intraocular lens implant has “built-in multiple focus rings” set to alternating refractive powers. However Trifocal lenses are truly better for close, intermediate, and distance vision.
Benefits of the PanOptix Trifocal IOL
Among available trifocal brands, Alcon’s PanOptix Trifocal IOL is one of the most effective options. The PanOptix has several benefits over other brands:
- Ultraviolet and blue light filtering material that protects eyes from both sunlight and damage from screens
- Enhanced close and middle vision compared to other trifocals, thanks to an intermediate focal point of 60 cm
- Better image quality over other leading trifocals
- Easier reading without the need for reading glasses — with other trifocal brands, the reading may be more difficult due to focus on the intermediate vision. PanOptix allows for sharp middle and close vision
