In cataract surgery, the cloudy lens inside the eye is replaced with an artificial lens, known as an intraocular lens (IOL). Monofocal IOLs have a single focusing distance, usually set for either near, intermediate, or distance vision. Most people opt for distance vision, and they may still need glasses for close-up activities.
"Monofocal Fako" would typically refer to cataract surgery involving the removal of the cloudy lens using phacoemulsification and the implantation of a monofocal intraocular lens. This procedure is common and helps restore clear vision, often with reduced dependency on glasses for distance vision.

Cataracts are a natural cloudiness that develops on the eye's lens as we age, leading to blurred vision. When traditional corrective measures fail, cataract surgery becomes essential to replace the clouded lens with a synthetic intraocular lens.
While all surgeries involve some level of risk, cataract surgery is a relatively safe procedure when performed by expert doctors. With experienced surgeons, the risks are minimal.
Cataract surgery is performed under local anesthesia, numbing only the eye area without rendering the patient unconscious. The surgeon makes a small incision on the eye surface and removes the clouded lens. Typically, an artificial lens (intraocular lens) is then placed in the position of the removed lens. Thanks to the use of modern technology, cataract surgeries are generally carried out smoothly and swiftly. Patients often experience a significant improvement in their vision after the surgery.
An IOL is a synthetic lens implanted to replicate the natural lens function.
Advanced IOLs often eliminate the need for glasses, but patients opting for traditional single-vision IOLs may need glasses for reading and computer work post-surgery.
Cataracts can indirectly cause nearsightedness or farsightedness and, in rare cases, may lead to glaucoma if left untreated.
Patients may experience minimal pressure but rarely feel pain during surgery. Anesthesia and medication ensure comfort, and the procedure typically takes around 20 minutes.
Cataracts do not redevelop after surgery, but clouding of the lens capsule may occur, requiring a capsulotomy for correction.
The femtosecond laser is a new technology used in cataract surgery. It has been successfully used in refractive surgery for 15 years and is now an important part of bladeless laser surgery for cataracts. Before the surgery, the femtosecond laser performs important maneuvers to ensure precision and safety. This technique, also called bladeless laser surgery, makes the overall surgical process easier and safer by completing certain stages beforehand. The femtosecond laser also helps mark the correct position for the lens implantation, which improves the outcome of the surgery.
The initial recovery period after cataract surgery is relatively quick, with many patients experiencing improved vision within a few days. However, complete healing and stabilization of vision may take several weeks.
