With presbyopia and cataract, not only do people have blurred vision, double vision, and eye fatigue, but some elderly people also suffer from both presbyopia and myopia, requiring them to switch between two pairs of glasses to see objects at different distances, causing great inconvenience in their daily lives!

　And now, with just one crystal, you can solve multiple eye problems such as cataracts and presbyopia at once, restore your full range of vision from far to near, and find out more by clicking here >>

On February 4, 2024, at 3:00 PM, the first batch of Zeiss astigmatism correction trifocal 939MP intraocular lens implantation procedures in China were successfully completed at China-Singapore Maylook (Chongqing) Eye Hospital.

The successful implementation of this surgery marks further advancement in the technology of artificial lens implantation for presbyopic cataract in the China-Singapore Maylook Eye Hospital, which provides more professional vision correction solutions for patients with presbyopic cataract in Chongqing and even the whole country, allowing them to enjoy the wonderful experience of "permanent clear vision" and a happy life. Meanwhile, the official launch of this innovative technology in China also drives the rapid development of presbyopic cataract treatment, marking a milestone of epochal significance!

One-time solutions offer hope to patients.

The winter in Chongqing is quite special, unlike the vast expanse of ice and snow in the north; nor is it as sunny as the coastal areas, but rather it is characterized by persistent fog. And for Mr. Zhou, such weather only makes it harder to bear.

The patient, who has cataracts, 1300-degree high myopia, and high astigmatism, often drives and attends work meetings. "The condition of my eyes makes it very difficult for me to see things. Add to that the frequent fog in Chongqing, and I drive with great trepidation," the patient said when recalling the past.

In fact, Mr. Zhou came to our hospital three months ago, but he has not had the surgery yet. Besides the complexity of his eye condition and the strong demand for full-range vision, both near, intermediate, and distant, he also hopes to stop wearing glasses.

Being able to meet all these requirements while also taking into account Mr. Zhou's eye condition, the optimal choice for a multi-focal intraocular lens that corrects astigmatism, cataracts, presbyopia, myopia, or high myopia at the same time is the Zeiss trifocal toric intraocular lens 939, which helps patients regain full vision. However, it was not yet available in China at the time!

With one intraocular lens, regain a clear vision!

"As soon as this crystal was launched in 2024, we notified Mr. Zhou immediately and performed surgeries on him within two days. The left eye was implanted with Zeiss trifocal 839, and the right eye was implanted with Zeiss trifocal astigmatism crystal 939. The surgery was a great success!" said Tang Ying, the business director of China-Singapore Maylook (Chongqing) Eye Hospital. 

"I rushed to the hospital as soon as I heard about the crystal's launch. I've been looking forward to this surgery every day since I learned that there was a lens that could treat my condition."

"The entire surgery took only ten minutes or so, it was a huge success!" the patient exclaimed. The patient had a Zeiss trifocal 839 lens implanted in their left eye and a Zeiss trifocal astigmatism lens implanted in their right eye.

Today is the first day after the operation, Mr. Zhou's distant vision in both eyes has reached 1.0, and his near vision is above 0.8, which is a very, very significant improvement!

Mr. Zhou regained his ability to see the world clearly and brightly with his own eyes.

Chongqing's First! Easily Restores Distant, Intermediate, and Near Vision

According to data from the National Health Commission and the National Bureau of Statistics, there are over 220 million cataract patients in China, with an 80% incidence rate among the 60-89 age group. There are also 390 million people with presbyopia and 160 million with astigmatism.

A standard monofocal artificial lens can see clearly in the distance, but it cannot correct astigmatism and cannot see nearby objects. After surgery, patients still need to wear glasses, or even multiple pairs of glasses that need to be constantly "switched," which cannot meet their visual needs fundamentally.

The Zeiss Multi-focal 939 lens can correct both presbyopia, cataracts, astigmatism, myopia, or hyperopia with just one artificial lens, helping patients regain full vision.
