PanOptix Pro Lens
What is a PanOptix Pro lens?
The Clareon® PanOptix® Pro Lens is an advanced trifocal intraocular lens designed to replace the eye’s natural cloudy lens during cataract surgery. Unlike a standard monofocal lens that is typically focused mainly for distance vision, PanOptix Pro is designed to help patients see clearly at near, intermediate, and distance ranges.
While no lens can guarantee complete freedom from glasses, the PanOptix Pro Lens is designed to provide a broad range of vision for patients who want more flexibility in their daily lives.
How the PanOptix Pro Lens Works
A broad range of vision
The PanOptix Pro Lens is designed to split and focus light in a way that supports vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges.
- Near vision: Activities such as reading a book, viewing a menu, or looking at your phone.
- Intermediate vision: Tasks like using a computer, cooking, seeing the dashboard, or working at arm’s length.
- Distance vision: Activities such as driving, watching TV, attending events, or enjoying outdoor scenery.
Why Choose the PanOptix Pro Lens?
Patients who value precision, flexibility, and personalized results often choose this option. It’s especially appealing to those who want more control over their vision outcome and prefer not to rely solely on pre-surgical measurements.
Vision at Multiple Distances
Designed to help you see up close, at arm’s length, and far away, making daily activities feel more natural.
Less Dependence on Glasses
May reduce the need for glasses for common tasks like reading, using a computer, watching TV, or driving.
Designed for an Active Lifestyle
A good option for patients with active lifestyles who want vision that supports a wide range of daily activities.
What to expect during the process
Before Surgery
- Your doctor will perform detailed measurements and review your eye health, lifestyle, and vision goals to determine if this lens is right for you.
During Surgery
- The cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with the PanOptix Pro Lens during outpatient cataract surgery.
After Surgery
- Vision often improves as the eye heals, though your brain may need time to adjust to the lens. Some patients may notice halos or glare, especially at night.
Your final vision will depend on several factors, including your eye health, healing process, and whether this lens is the right match for your visual needs.
