Balanced View Optics ™ Technology literally provides multiple focal points so you can see well at a variety of distances. The Rezoom Multifocal lens has five uniquely proportioned visual zones designed to provide clear vision for different light and focal distances.
The Rezoom lens is providing patients with a full range of vision and greater independence from glasses or contact lenses. Clinical studies show 92% of those receiving the ReZoom lens technology "never" or "only occasionally", need to wear glasses. Although you might prefer to use glasses for prolonged reading, to read small type, or to drive at night, most people report they can go to the store and conduct most of their daily activities without depending on glasses. The full benefit of having the ReZoom Multifocal IOL lens implant will be even more noticeable when both eyes have been treated.

The clinical studies supporting the approval showed that 80 percent of patients who received the AcrySof ReSTOR® lens did not use glasses for any activities after cataract surgery.
Other intraocular lenses may produce vision at all ranges by depending on the action of the eye's muscles (accommodation). But the AcrySof ReSTOR® lens provides different ranges of vision based on a lens configuration that enables specific distribution of light in response to how wide or small the eye's pupil might be. This light distribution design is called apodized diffractive optics.
Most current intraocular lenses used for cataract surgery are able to restore vision only in limited distance ranges, which means patients often must use eyeglasses or other corrective lenses following surgery.
Crystalens™: The Accommodating Lens
The Crystalens Intraocular Lens (IOL) is an FDA approved lens implant designed for the correction of presbyopia in addition to the correction of moderate myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness). Presbyopia is most commonly encountered when people are over 40 years old and it is due to the gradual loss of focusing ability that occurs throughout life. Presbyopia is typically corrected with reading glasses, bifocal glasses, monovision contact lens system, or bifocal contact lenses.
The Crystalens™ is the only available IOL that actually changes focus in your eye similar to the way the natural lens worked before presbyopia. It has unique properties allowing it to flex inside the eye in response to the contraction of the ciliary muscle of the eye thus shifting the focus of the eye from distance to near. This change in focus is called accommodation.
