Wow..please do more on the Clearview 3 lens soon..❤❤

FANTASTIC! You make me cry with joy, Dr. Wong! There IS hope in gaining my independence back & reducing my fear of driving at night. My cataract surgery left me worse than how I saw before. I will ask my Dr. about these lenses. Educating us, educates others. Bless you for taking this time to teach.

It would be interesting to get impressions of the “quality” of vision at night or under dim lighting. Not just whether Halos or Starbursts appear, but whether the distribution of light under darker conditions allows good quality vision when compared to a standard lens.

thank you for doing this! would really love to hear how he responds to night driving after a week. i'm considering this exact lens right now and would find this additional information invaluable. thanks again for posting this

Very educational and inspirational as always, Dr. Wong!! Thank you for the video!!

I had cataract surgeries about 7 weeks ago for both eyes and had Vivity Toric lens (for astigmatism & previous lasik). I can see everything (distance, intermediate & near) crystal clear and no halos or starbursts at night. I now see 20/20 on left eye and between 20/20 - 20/25 for the right eye. Not sure why my doctor didn't use Clearview but overall, I'm very happy with my new vision.

Because clearview is not available in toric.

Thank you for this video Dr Wong. This is interesting indeed, given the notable reduction of the night time halos. Looking forward to more client experiences for this IOL.

Thanks to you and your patient. These videos teaches me on what to expect on RLE from a first hand experience

Great video. Always informative. I'm in my late 40s and dealing with the crappy loss of near vision. Personally I'm hoping and waiting for those accommodative IOLs. Hoping that they'll be a real option in a few years, like FluidVision or Juvene. Crossing my fingers.

So wonderful to learn alot with your great videos, Dr.Wong! Luckily, 'till now, haven't have many problems with my patients implanted with the Panoptix (neither the Vivity ones) - maybe due to alot of preoperative chairtime, maybe due to a lower n comparing to yours, maybe for avoiding to implant the Panoptix in patients so attentive to small details, like this one fom your video and also maybe for not being so open for patient's smallest complaints about their lenses... Even so, looking ahead to have the Clear 3 lenses in Brazil. All my best! Dan

I currently wear glasses and require spherical & cylinder correction. Watching these videos convinces me that when my time comes for cataract surgery and choosing a replacement lens, I'll choose a lens that corrects only the sphere for distance and wear glasses to correct the cylinder and anything remaining. I don't mind wearing glasses and it's imperative that I be able to drive comfortably at night.

Thank You.. I Need To Get Those..

Getting Clearview 3 lens IOL x2 from Dr Wong in 2 days!!! Very excited. I'm a service technician doing a lot of close work. Not happy with glasses. I'm 65 and have minimal cataracts in both eyes. Using +3.75 readers for several years, slowly getting worse from 40 yo before that. Low astigmatism, 3mm pupils. No other issues.

How did it go? Any follow up? I'm considering this lens too but concerned about night driving and/or type of glare or whatnot from the design of the SBL3. Do you notice any visual "artifacts" (ie positive or negative dysphotopsias)? Thank you

@@johndoe-ep7qk I don't think you need to worry. I'm seeing some "angel wing" flares on bright lights at night and longer, thin ones from the bifocal design. But nothing substantial or to be anxious over in driving. It's really very good at night for me. Also I'm ecstatic at both the near/far performance. Especially when I have significant cataract along with 20/150 vision! Now I am seeing 20/20 near/far! What a delight!!

So when a patient is unhappy with a result, and it is an elective out of pocket surgery, they are paying for a full complete additional surgery and lens? Possibly but 20k to have two replaced?

If the Clearview 3s aren't trifocals how is the mid range vision say looking at a computer monitor just beyond arms' length? Thank you for your reply

Would love to know the follow up on this case. How was his night driving? Were the concentric circles less noticeable with the ClearView lens in the right eye? Did he decide to leave the PanOptic lens in the left eye or do a lens exchange for the ClearView? I’m 5 months in from having PanOptics lenses. Daytime vision is great, but the concentric circles are very troublesome when driving at night. Maybe this would be a good fix.

Can you make same sort of sketch to show how do you see at night? how big are circles?

Q: For those patients with a very poor prescription and some astigmatism, would the LAL likely be a better option?

Hello Dr. Wong, Thank you so much for your informative videos!! You mention near the end of the video to your patient that both the Panoptix and Clear view lenses have their strengths and weaknesses. I know that the weakness with the Panoptix is night time halos. Could you please tell me what is the weakness with the Clarview lens? Thank you

This is very interesting! I’ve recently undergone cataract surgery in my dominant eye with a standard IOL. Unfortunately there was a refraction error and I’m only seeing 20/70. 😢 Previously I wore contact lenses one set for distance and the other a multi focal which suited me very well. While I’m sorting out what my options are for the dominant eye might this might be an option for the non-dominant eye?

Would love input on night driving from patients who have this lens.

Is there any contrast loss with Clearview 3?

Are those good if you have astigmatism?

Was he a myop or a hipermetrop before putting the panoptix? I heard myops do worse eith trifocals lens than hipermetrops

I had the Crystal Lens put in each eye about 3 years ago and have not been able to achieve good close up vision without reading glasses. Is the Clearview lens one that could replace at least one eye? I have a lazy left eye so i wouldn't change that one. Is it too late to make the change?

Wish my biggest complaint was 20/20 vision ❄

3 months post op with panoptix and still dry eyes Using eye drops frequently Will this get better?

Assuming I meet the physical requirements do you think you could recommend or possibly consider this lens for someone like me who has had a retinal detachment? I’m 38 with -9 myopic.

Wow Impressive Did u reopen ur original primary wound for this case? I would imagine it’s hard to reopen 10 months later.. I’m guessing you made a new wound. Also- I’ve heard the Clearview needs a slightly larger wound.. If you did make a new wound, did u make it in the same area as the original or did you have to scoot it over to completely avoid it? Thx for sharing! 🙏

What is the intermediate vision like with these, is it as good, or better than "normal" trifocal lenses?

Hello, Dr. Wong. What is the difference between ClearView and lentis mf30?

Oil change takes longer... Amazing technology.. Is cost to replace lens same as new installation? What if the guy didn't like Clearview, would you install PanOptix again?

Are there such lenses in toric options?

I’m curious how your eyesight has been after you replaced just one of your lens.

It is hard for me to read small and darker letters/sentences but whenever, I did the reading charts in my doctor's clinic my vision seems okay to him.20/20.He told me to to use the reading glass. Would you comment on this please? Thanks

It is quite interesting, but is the Clearview 3 not exactly the same as the since many years available Teleon Lentis Mplus segmented design principle? The Lentis MPlus is also available in toric. I a a bit surprised to see that there are so many similarities between the really old Teleon Lentis Mplus segmented design. So are there any advantages in the Clearview 3 vs the Lentis MPlus or is this just the same from another company?

Scheduled for Sx in 10 days. If I remember correctly, Dr. suggested Symphony in dominant eye with ZLB00 in non dominant eye two weeks later ostensibly achieving a combined broader range of near/intermediate acuity. Currently OD -0.5 sphere -0.5 Cyl 065 Axis and OS -0.75 Sphere -0.5 Cyl 085 Axis My readers have a +2.00 add in both eyes. Obviously would prefer to minimize the potential for glare or halos with multifocal IOLs. Can you give an opinion if I should discuss the Clearview 3 with the Dr. before it is too late or is it too early to determine how the Clearview 3 is behaving. I realize new lenses will always be developed but would hate to miss an opportunity for what might appear a game changer regarding halos and glare.

@@juicer52 I got Symfony in 2018. I was 41 at the time. It is outdated technology. I got no near or intermediate vision with it. Worst was huge ring around light at night. Not the concentric rings of light, those are manageable, but huge ring of light of lens edge. Also the vision was never sharp. Last year I got it exchanged for Clareon PanOptix from Dr. Safran. Five years of misery was over. If you are going to get an iol with rings then get a trifocal. Good luck!!

Not everyone is a candidate for the clearview 3. 3 criteria must be met by the patient: 1) pupil size 2.75 mm or larger in normal lighting, 2) low degree of astigmatism, 3) prescription of the eye cannot be too nearsighted due to limited power range of the clearview lenses available.
