EDOF vs Trifocal IOLs: Pro EDOF

Show Description +

Multifocal lenses have evolved into extended depth of focus and trifocal versions. Both options cause less issues related to glare, halos, and contrast, which were common with bifocal diffractive lenses. Gerd U. Auffarth, MD, PhD, FEBO, emphasizes the benefits of EDOF lenses as part of a session on controversies in cataract surgery. Be sure to check out our future coverage, where Ahmed El-Massry, MD, PhD, highlights the benefits of trifocal IOLs.
