We're celebrating the latest advancements in multifocal lens implant
technology!
Now, cataract surgery not only allows you to ReZoom life, it may allow you to
"SEE YOUNG AGAIN!"

The
ReZoom™ Multifocal
Lens Technology
|
| Balanced View Optics™ technology literally provides
multiple focal points, so you can see well at a variety of distances.
The ReZoom™ Multifocal Lens has five uniquely proportioned visual
zones designed to provide clear vision for different light and focal distances. |
Presbyopia:
Beginning around the age of 40, the natural lens inside the eye begins to harden and lose its flexibility.
This reduces the eye's ability to change its focus from near to intermediate, to distance, and back again and is known as "loss of accommodation" or "presbyopia,"
The earliest symptom of presbyopia is difficulty seeing things up close. Bifocal and even trifocal glasses often become necessary to see clearly at all distances.
Cataracts:
As the natural lens of the eye continues to deteriorate, it starts to become cloudy or brown. Vision becomes blurry, and colors lose their brilliance. |
|
At first, frequent changes in glasses prescriptions can help, but left untreated, cataracts can eventually lead to blindness. The only way to see clearly after a cataract matures is to have it removed and then replaced with an intraocular lens, or IOL.

Monofocal IOL (one distance only) |

ReZOOM™ Multifocal Lens (near and far) |
| More Choices:
Until recently, patients undergoing lens implant surgery received a monofocal,
or 'single focus' IOL.
While monofocal IOLs implanted in both eyes generally provide excellent
distance vision, most patients need spectacle correction for near
and intermediate vision. However, in the late 1990's, Advanced Medical
Optics (AMO) introduced its first multifocal IOL designed to provide
multiple points of focus, thereby dramatically reducing the need for
bifocals or trifocal glasses after surgery.
Today, with its many optical design enhancements, AMO's second-generation
ReZoom™ Multifocal IOL is providing patients with a full range
of vision, and with a greater independence from glasses or contact lenses.
Clinical studies show that 92% of those receiving the ReZoom™ Lens
technology "never", or "only occasionally," need
to wear glasses.1

The First
Steps to ReZooming Life
|
| If you suffer from poor vision or think you might have
a cataract, you should make an appointment with Dr. Seibel to have a complete
eye examination. Once it is determined that you are a good candidate for
the ReZoom™ Multifocal
IOL, you will be given additional information about the possible risks,
complications, and costs involved with the procedure. Be sure to have all
of your questions answered before giving your consent to have surgery. |
