Vivity IOL
Are you considering cataract surgery to improve your sight? Do you want to achieve crystal-clear vision over a wide range of distances? You may be a good candidate for the Vivity IOL, a premium intraocular lens offered at Specialty Eyecarè Centre.
What is the Vivity IOL?
When you undergo cataract surgery, your eye doctor will remove the natural lens of your eye and replace it with an intraocular lens, or IOL, to improve your vision. There are many different types of IOLs that all offer unique benefits.
The Vivity IOL is a premium extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL that can provide you with clear vision far away and at arm’s length, as well as functional vision up close. What sets the Vivity lens apart from other premium multifocal IOLs is its non-diffractive design.
It utilizes proprietary X-Wave technology that stretches light instead of splitting it to allow for a smoother transition between focusing powers. This means you’ll experience fewer gaps in your vision and greater ease doing all the things you love.
Who is a Good Candidate for the Vivity IOL?
If you’re a good candidate for cataract surgery, you will likely be a good candidate for most IOLs. However, certain IOLs are better suited for different patients, depending on their individual health, refractive errors, lifestyle, and visual goals.
You may be a good candidate for the Vivity IOL if you:
- Want to achieve a broader range of vision after cataract surgery
- Have an active lifestyle and want clear vision that can keep up
- Want to reduce your chance of halos and glare
- Have realistic expectations about what the Vivity IOL can do for your vision
To determine whether the Vivity IOL is right for you, you should schedule an appointment with your eye doctor at Specialty Eyecarè Centre. They can answer any questions you have about cataract surgery and IOLs and help you decide if you are a good candidate for the Vivity IOL.
What are the Benefits of the Vivity IOL?
The Vivity IOL offers a wide range of benefits, including:
Better Night Vision
The Vivity IOL’s unique, non-diffractive design can help reduce glare and halos. This is particularly helpful for driving at night, as certain IOLs can increase the presence of these visual aberrations.
Reduced Dependence on Visual Aids
With the Vivity IOL, you can see clearly across multiple distances, reducing your reliance on glasses and contacts. This not only saves you money on the costs associated with visual aids but allows you to enjoy more activities without worrying about whether your vision will be clear.
Smooth Transition Between Focal Points
If you lead an active lifestyle, the Vivity IOL may be the right lens for you. As an extended depth of focus lens, it offers a smoother transition between points than other IOLs and fewer gaps in your vision.
Whether you’re canoeing across a lake, out on the pickleball court, or watching your golf ball glide across the green, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your crystal-clear vision isn’t going anywhere.
Blue Light Filtering
Patients who spend a lot of time on electronic devices or work in front of a computer may benefit from the Vivity IOL. It has built-in blue light filtering that can help prevent eye strain from looking at screens.
UV Protection
Although you should still use UV-protective sunglasses when outside, the Vivity IOL provides an added layer of UV protection to your eyes to prevent sun damage.
Corrects Astigmatism
For patients with astigmatism, the Vivity IOL comes in a toric version to correct your refractive error.
