go to www.tecnisiol.com. The aspheric IOL's like the tecnis work to provide better contrast as the pupil enlarges to 5mm. If you are out of the USA , you might be talking about Tecnis MultifocalMultifocal atrial tachycardia which is different.
Thank you. I already visit the tecnis site, but could not find about. I live in USA and I know that tecnis multifocalMultifocal atrial tachycardia are still in clinical trial. I can seek for them in Europe but, reading the posts in this forum, I see that generally multifocalMultifocal atrial tachycardia iols can cause more problems than they can resolve and probably the ideal iol has still to come.
yo are right. Tecnology will always continue to get better. MultifocalMultifocal atrial tachycardia IOL's today are gaining in interest and implantation. They are provide great results for many people. It is very important to talk to your doctor about your lifestyle, occupation and hobbies to determine what is best for you and what trade offs there are. It never hurts to talk to more than one doctor and research as you are doing so you go in with the right mindset. You should be fine for the Tecnis CL. I do not understand the comment about the pupil size and you should ask more questions to your doctor about it. It would not provide as much benefit if you had a very small pupil.
He agrees with me that aspherical iols are better and, if possible, he will implant the Tecnis CL. As you can imagine, I am pretty tired to change doctor and I decided to post in this forum instead. I trust him anyway. In my opinion, ophthalmologists need time to know and be trained with these new iols and that is normal.
