Professor Muhtaseb uses a variety of state-of-the-art lens implants to help you achieve your desired outcome after surgery. These are explained below:

Monofocal lens implants
•    Provide vision at either distance or near, with glasses being required at other times

Monofocal toric lens implants
•    Toric lenses correct astigmatism at the time of surgery, providing better-unaided vision after the treatment is completed

Mono-Enhanced lens implants
•    Provide vision at either distance or mid-range (such as using a computer or browsing in the shops), with glasses being required for the small print in the mid-range and for reading

Multifocal lens implants
•    As well as excellent distance vision, these lenses provide greater near reading and mid-range vision (such as using a computer or browsing in the shops), without the need for glasses

Multifocal toric lens implants
•    For excellent vision at distance, mid-range and near, as well as correcting astigmatism at the same time. Correcting astigmatism at the time of surgery is of particular importance when a multifocal lens implant is planned.
