Smart Lens (Trifocal Toric Lens) Patient Story
Tests and Examinations: All necessary examinations and tests were completed to ensure the best treatment approach.
Patient Complaints and Initial Findings: The patient presented with complaints of visual impairment and cataracts.
Treatment Plan: A trifocal lens application was initially recommended without seeing the reports. However, after conducting the necessary tests, it was decided that a Trifocal Toric lens application would be more appropriate.
Treatment Process: On the first day at the hospital, all necessary tests were performed. On the second day, eye drops were administered to dilate the pupil, and the patient was then taken for surgery. The operation took about an hour and was successfully completed without any complications.
Post-Treatment Recovery: The patient showed a very rapid recovery, with a significant improvement in vision the very next day. They started using the prescribed eye drops, which are to be used for a month, and their vision continues to improve day by day.
Patient Feedback:
The patient states that the treatment experience was excellent and expressed great satisfaction with the hospital, the doctor, and the entire team.
Patient History and Risk Factors:
The 57-year-old patient had a severe cataract, especially in the right eye, which could have made the surgery more challenging, but the entire process went very smoothly.
Post-Treatment Follow-Up and Recommendations:
The patient's vision is expected to continue improving day by day after the treatment. The most critical part was the examinations performed the day after the surgery, which also went very well. Since our patient will stay in Istanbul for a while longer, our doctor mentioned that they might have a chance to see him again.
Alternative Treatment Options:
Due to the patient's age, cataracts, and astigmatism, no alternative treatment options were considered.
