Stitchless phaco cataract surgery with premium multifocal, EDOF and toric lenses — so you can drive, read and use your phone with far less need for spectacles. Performed by Dr. Sharina Nanda at Kataria Eye & ENT Hospital.
Book Lens Consultation Call 99146-00666In cataract surgery your cloudy natural lens is replaced with a clear artificial lens (IOL). A standard monofocal lens gives clear distance vision, but most people still need reading glasses afterwards. Premium lenses are designed to correct more than one distance, so many patients do most daily tasks without glasses.
Clear vision for distance and near. Ideal if you want to read, use a phone and drive with minimal glasses.
Extended depth of focus — a smooth range of clear vision from far to computer distance, with fewer halos at night.
Corrects astigmatism (cylindrical power) along with the cataract, for sharper, crisper vision.
| Lens type | Distance (driving, TV) | Intermediate (computer) | Near (reading, phone) | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monofocal | Clear | Glasses may be needed | Reading glasses needed | Budget-conscious patients happy to wear reading glasses |
| Multifocal | Clear | Good | Clear | Freedom from glasses for most daily tasks |
| EDOF | Clear | Clear | Good for most tasks | Active lifestyle, computer users, night drivers |
| Toric (mono / multifocal / EDOF) | Adds astigmatism correction to the chosen lens type | Patients with cylindrical power | ||
Results vary from patient to patient. Your surgeon will recommend a lens after a detailed eye examination and lens measurement (biometry).
You may be a good candidate if you:
Complete cataract evaluation and retina check.
Precise biometry and a one-to-one discussion to choose the lens that fits your lifestyle.
Phacoemulsification through a tiny incision, usually 20–30 minutes. Laser-assisted option available.
Go home the same day with clear aftercare instructions and planned follow-ups.

Multifocal and EDOF lenses are designed to reduce dependence on both distance and near glasses, and many patients do most daily tasks without spectacles. Some people may still prefer glasses for very fine print or long reading sessions. Your surgeon will explain what to expect for your eyes.
A multifocal lens gives clear distance and near vision. An EDOF (extended depth of focus) lens gives a continuous range from distance to intermediate (computer) with good near vision for most tasks and typically fewer night-time halos.
Stitchless phaco surgery is done under numbing drops or local anaesthesia and is usually completed in 20–30 minutes. Most patients notice clearer vision within a few days.
The cost depends on the lens type (monofocal, multifocal, EDOF or toric) and your eye measurements. Call 99146-00666 or book a consultation for a transparent, itemised estimate.
Yes. A toric lens corrects astigmatism together with the cataract, and toric versions of premium lenses are available.
Usually a check-up and lens counselling visit, the surgery day, and follow-ups. Call us and we will try to schedule these to minimise your travel.
