About Cataract Lens Implants at
Alabama Eye & Cataract Center Birmingham

For more than 25 years Dr. Michelson has been offering patients Intraocular Lens Implants (IOL) to correct vision after Cataract Surgery in Alabama. However, up until recently, choosing the type of Lens Implant to correct your vision after Cataract Surgery was exclusively at the discretion of the Cataract Surgeon. Today, at Alabama Eye & Cataract Center, P.C., there are many types of Intraocular Lens Implants (IOL) that Dr. Michelson can use in order to provide you with the best results to match your lifestyle. At Alabama Eye & Cataract Center, P.C we will help you to be independent of eyeglasses, including reading glasses and bifocals after Cataract Surgery.

These different types of Lens Implants include Monofocal Lens Implants which are the most basic type of lens implant and only correct distance vision and not arms length or close reading vision, Aspheric Lens Implants which offer a higher quality distance vision but still do not correct arms length or close reading vision, Toric Lens Implants for those patients with astigmatism and Near Vision Presbyopia Correcting Multifocal Lens Implants such as the ReSTOR® Lens Implant, ReZoom™ Lens Implant and Crystalens® Lens Implant which correct distance vision, as well as arms length vision and close reading vision for most patients.

Based on the results of your Cataract Evaluation, your lifestyle and your desire to conduct your daily activities without being dependent on eyeglasses, contact lenses, bifocals and reading glasses, the staff at Alabama Eye & Cataract Center will guide you in choosing the best Lens Implant for your individual needs.
