​It’s no surprise that our bodies change with age. But did you know our eyes also undergo age-related changes?

​While certain age-related changes are considered normal, other symptoms can be a sign of a potentially serious eye condition.

Deciding which intraocular lens (IOL), or artificial lens replacement, is right for you might be one of the most important health decision you make. It can mean the opportunity to actually improve your vision following cataract surgery. 

We have been discussing traditional and all-laser cataract surgery in our previous two posts. Regardless of which type of cataract surgery you have, you will need an artificial lens replacement called an intraocular lens (IOL) to replace your clouded lens (cataract). There are three primary types of IOLs, single-focus, multi-focus, and toric.

In our previous post, we looked at all-laser cataract surgery, the latest advancement in cataract surgery. In this post, we will take a closer look at the differences and similarities between traditional cataract surgery and all-laser cataract surgery. 

As the most common cause of vision loss and the leading cause of blindness around the world, chances are you have heard of cataracts. You may even be familiar with cataract surgery, with more than three million procedures performed in the U.S. and 20 million surgeries performed worldwide each year. Cataract surgery is one of the safest surgical procedures performed, and recent advances have improved outcomes for patients after cataract surgery. ​
