It’s truly one-of-a-kind and may be very helpful for those whose lifestyle requires more complete vision.


SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (PRWEB)

Mattax Neu Prater Eye Center now offers its cataract patients the AcrySof® IQ PanOptix® Trifocal Lens, the first and only trifocal intraocular replacement lens (IOL) available in the United States. Implanted during cataract surgery, the PanOptix lens is designed to provide a full range of vision with less dependence on glasses and contacts. This full range includes clear vision at near (e.g. looking at a cell phone), intermediate (e.g. looking at a computer screen), and far (e.g. watching television) distances.

“Cataract correction technology is constantly evolving, so our team is always monitoring these advancements,” says eye surgeon Dr. Jacob Thomas of Mattax Neu Prater. “When we select a new device for our patients, it’s because we believe it’s the most beneficial option for them, not simply because it’s the newest. That is why we are so excited to introduce our cataract patients to the PanOptix trifocal lens. It’s truly one-of-a-kind and may be very helpful for those whose lifestyle requires more complete vision.”

Those interested in learning more about the advanced technology PanOptix IOL should request a cataract consultation by calling Mattax Neu Prater Eye Center at (417) 886-3937 or visiting MattaxNeuPrater.com.
