Treatment Overview
AT LISA Tri 839MP Trifocal Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implantation in Korea is one of the most advanced solutions for cataract and presbyopia correction, offering seamless, high-definition vision at all distances—near, intermediate, and far. Developed by Carl Zeiss Meditec, this trifocal lens uses cutting-edge diffractive-refractive optical design to provide natural, balanced vision with minimal halos and glare.
Korean ophthalmology centers integrate AI-guided lens planning, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS), and digital centration systems to achieve precise lens placement and alignment. These advanced techniques ensure optimal optical performance, smooth visual transition, and long-term stability, making Korea a top destination for premium trifocal lens implantation.
Purpose & Benefits
Purpose
- Replace the natural or cataractous lens with a premium trifocal intraocular lens that provides sharp vision across all focal ranges.
- Correct presbyopia, myopia, hyperopia, and mild astigmatism in a single procedure.
- Deliver clear, continuous focus for near tasks (reading), intermediate vision (computer use), and distance vision (driving).
- Eliminate or reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
Benefits
- Full-Range Vision: Exceptional visual clarity at near, intermediate, and far distances.
- Natural Visual Experience: Smooth transition between focal points with minimal adaptation.
- High Contrast Sensitivity: Maintains crisp image quality even in dim lighting.
- Minimal Halos and Glare: Advanced optical design reduces night vision disturbances.
- Fast Recovery: Rapid visual improvement due to precision surgical techniques.
- Stable Long-Term Vision: Hydrophilic-acrylic material ensures biocompatibility and optical stability over decades.
Ideal Candidates
AT LISA Tri 839MP Trifocal IOL Implantation in Korea is ideal for:
- Cataract patients desiring spectacle-free vision at all distances.
- Individuals aged 40 years or older with presbyopia seeking long-term visual freedom.
- Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) candidates seeking to eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.
- Patients with healthy corneal shape, normal macula, and stable ocular surface.
- Those motivated for premium visual outcomes and ready for mild neuroadaptation.
Possible Risks & Complications
The procedure is extremely safe, but mild and temporary effects may occur:
- Halos or glare: Usually mild and fade as the brain adapts.
- Temporary blurred vision: Common during early adaptation.
- Dry eyes or mild inflammation: Easily managed with medication.
- Residual refractive error: Rare; can be corrected with laser fine-tuning if needed.
- Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO): May develop months or years later; treatable with a YAG laser.
Korean surgeons use AI-based biometry, digital axis tracking, and femtosecond precision to minimize these risks and ensure perfect alignment for superior visual results.
Surgical Techniques
- AI-Guided Ocular Biometry:
Uses advanced measurement systems to calculate exact IOL power and optimal centration based on corneal and ocular parameters. - Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS):
Performs precise incisions, capsulotomy, and lens fragmentation for smooth IOL implantation and perfect capsular alignment. - Micro-Incision Phacoemulsification:
Removes the natural lens through an incision smaller than 2.2 mm, minimizing surgical trauma and accelerating recovery. - Digital Centration and Alignment:
Ensures the trifocal lens is perfectly aligned with the visual axis for ideal optical performance. - OCT-Guided Imaging:
Real-time intraoperative visualization guarantees accurate IOL placement and centration. - Wavefront-Controlled Aberration Reduction:
Improves optical sharpness and reduces unwanted visual distortions. - Intraoperative Aberrometry (Optional):
Provides real-time power verification during surgery for enhanced precision.
Treatment Process in Korea
Step-by-Step Workflow
Step 1 – Comprehensive Eye Assessment:
Includes corneal topography, axial length measurement, macular OCT, and AI-based trifocal simulation for personalized lens selection.
Step 2 – Surgical Planning:
Customized calculation of IOL power, optical target (distance, near, or blended), and alignment strategy.
Step 3 – Cataract Extraction or Lens Removal:
Performed via femtosecond laser-assisted or micro-incision phacoemulsification techniques for optimal safety.
Step 4 – IOL Implantation:
The AT LISA Tri 839MP Trifocal IOL is folded and implanted into the capsular bag, then precisely centered using digital systems.
Step 5 – Postoperative Monitoring:
Follow-ups verify lens position, stability, and neural adaptation for maximum visual comfort.
Treatment Duration: 15–25 minutes per eye
Setting: Outpatient (same-day discharge)
Recovery & After-Care
After-Care Guidelines
- Use antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drops for 2–4 weeks.
- Avoid rubbing eyes, swimming, or strenuous activities for at least 1 week.
- Wear UV-protective sunglasses outdoors.
- Use artificial tears if dryness occurs.
- Attend follow-up visits at Day 1, Week 1, and Month 1 to ensure stability and clarity.
Recovery Timeline
- Days 1–3: Vision becomes brighter and clearer; mild sensitivity possible.
- Week 1: Distance and intermediate vision stabilize; near vision sharpens progressively.
- Weeks 2–4: Full visual range established; halos and glare typically diminish.
- 1–3 Months: Complete neuroadaptation and optimal visual balance achieved.
