Premium Lens Implants


Would you like to reduce your dependence on eyeglasses after cataract surgery with lens implants?


Cataract surgery now offers the benefits of improved near, intermediate and distance vision.

Standard Lens

– Many choose the standard single-focus lens implant. It gives excellent vision and does not involve any extra costs.

Premium Lens

lens implants
– If reducing or eliminating your dependence on glasses for distance and/or reading is a high priority for you, you may want to consider a multi-focal IOL as part of your cataract surgery procedure. Today, people are increasingly involved in selecting the type of lens implant that best meets their lifestyle needs. Premium cataract lens implants are available at Vision Institute in Colorado Springs, CO.  

Many people enjoy a greater level of independence from eyeglasses by choosing multi-focal lenses instead of standard cataract surgery. The surgical procedure for mono-focal and multi-focal IOL is similar, only the lens is different.

Currently, there are multi-focal IOLs available, which provide patients the ability to see well at more than one distance without the use of glasses or contacts.

Other types of IOLs available are: Toric IOLs for people with astigmatisms and Blue Light-Filtering IOLs, which help to filter UV light rays.


Are multifocal IOLs right for me?

If you have been diagnosed with cataracts, you may be a candidate for a premium, multi-focal lens.

Whether a multi-focal IOL is the right choice for you, depends on personal preferences, lifestyle, and the overall health of your eyes.

At Vision Institute we will make a recommendation, following a complete eye exam, but the choice is yours to make.  Our medical practice is committed to helping our patients decide if they want premium lens implants for their cataract surgery.  Our doctors and staff will fully explain your options in a relaxed environment, as well as answer all your questions, so that you can make the best decision for you.

How much do IOLs cost?

Cataract surgery and standard cataract lens implants (IOLs) is typically covered by insurance because it is considered medically necessary, newer premium lens implants are not covered.  If you choose premium lens implants there will be additional cost to you.

If you, or someone you know, is interested in finding out more about this exciting option for cataract surgery, please contact us to schedule a vision appointment  today.
