SMART INTROCULAR LENSES

For individuals aged 45-50 who prefer not to wear distant and near glasses and have not developed cataracts, multifocal intraocular lenses, which provide lifelong permanence, have replaced Refractive Laser Eye Surgery in this age group in recent years.

IS SURGERY THE ONLY TREATMENT METHOD FOR CATARACT?

Cataract is an eye condition that occurs when the lens of the eye loses its transparency.

    While we normally blink our eyes 12-16 times per minute, we only blink 6-8 times when looking at a screen.

    The use of screen filters prevents the decrease in blink frequency and reduces glare and reflections.

    Dry eye, which may develop due to reduced blinking frequency, can be prevented by using moisturizing eye drops in addition to screen filters.
