Recently, I performed a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for a patient with cataracts. This procedure is highly effective for patients who require clear vision at a single distance. During the surgery, the natural lens was replaced with a monofocal IOL, providing the patient with precise visual acuity for their primary focus area—either near or far vision, depending on their lifestyle. Monofocal lenses are a trusted solution in cataract surgery, offering simplicity and effectiveness, particularly for patients who do not require multifocal capabilities. The recovery process was smooth, with the patient achieving excellent visual results postoperatively. #CataractSurgery #MonofocalIOL #OphthalmologyProcedure #EyeSurgery #ProfessionalUpdate
