Are there different types of implantable lenses?
Yes, there are a number of different types of implantable lenses. Two of them are used for people with high nearsightedness and differ in their position of placement. The VerisyseTM is attached to the colored part of the eye, iris, and is placed in the front of the eye while the VisianTM is placed behind the iris, just over the natural lens.
Other lens implants are used when the natural lens is removed in highly farsighted individuals. These include the Tecnis, Crystalens, ReStor and ReZoom.
