Abstract
Surgical treatment consisting in own lens removal and replacing it with artificial one is the most frequently performed procedure in ophthalmic surgery worldwide. Except cataract extraction more often cristal lens removal is being performed with artificial lens implantation as a method for presbyopia correction (PLE) or refractive surgery (CLE). Currently patients require not only excellent distance vision but also intermediate and near vision, perfectly without need for additional spectacles correction. In such cases the perfect solution is multifocal intraocular lenses use. Due to its’ optical properties AcrySof ReSTOR let patients achieve comfort vision for all distances. Proper patients qualification in association with meeting their visual needs, detailed ophthalmological examination and perfectly performed surgical procedure allows achieving long-term very good distance, intermediate and near vision without any spectacles dependence.
