Which IOL to chose? Which choice is better?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I use to wear glasses since age 10 to see far. But I got cataract on my right and mild cataract on my left.

I went to do my Cataract on my right and replace it with J&J Eyhance lens in Aug 2023.

My present reading for my eye both is as below after surgery

.

Right: Sphere +0.00 Cylinder -0.50 Axis 160 Dist VA 6/6 -2 Add +2.25 Near VA N5

Left : Sphere -3.25 Cylinder -1.00 Axis 40 Dist VA 6/7.5+2 Add +2.25 Near VA N5

.

Presently Monovision coping well unaided.

Doctor advise me if I ok with it, The second surgery can wait longer .He give me a 6 month appointment.

I need help as I have very poor immediate vision. I cannot see well in computer distance. Although I can see fine print using my own left eye . I need to wear a -1.25 glass to see better during work but i feel dizzy

if i move my head to much .

If I am not working . I am glasses free. I can read my handphone (Left eye ) watch TV (Right eye) .

I do not drive by the way.

Doctor suggest Rayone EMV for my left eye to see near if I wanted to exchange IOL

I read up Vivity lens and suggest it to him . He said it ok too if I want it.

I cut short doctor appointmenrt to 3 months and next appointment in Dec 2023. As I want better immediate vision and maintain my near vision.

So in conclusion which lens should I use to see near better RAYONE oR VIVITY? Or which lens can give me a mini-monovision so as aid me better to see far clearer too.

Any suggestion is welcome.
