Premium IOLs — chosen for your visual lifestyle, not the brand.

Premium intraocular lenses can give you near-, intermediate-, and distance vision without glasses after cataract surgery. The right lens depends on your visual habits (office work / driving / sports), your pupil size, and your cornea anatomy. We map all three before recommending a specific IOL.

Premium IOL Implantation with Dr. Ahmed Shaarawy — Shaarawy Cornea Clinic

Why choose us

International standard. Regional access.

Lifestyle mapping before lens choice

We ask about your daily activities (computer use, reading, night driving, sports) and match the IOL to that profile. Wrong lens for the lifestyle = patient unhappiness.

Cornea + cataract sub-specialty

If you have prior LASIK, keratoconus, or Fuchs dystrophy, IOL power calculation is more complex. Cornea-trained surgeons get the post-LASIK eyes right.

Original IOLs from Alcon, J&J, Zeiss

We import IOLs directly from manufacturers with full traceability. PanOptix, Symfony, Synergy, AT LARA, AcrySof IQ Vivity all available.

Honest about limitations

Trifocal IOLs cause some halos at night for ~20% of patients. EDOF reduces near vision quality. We explain trade-offs upfront so you choose with full information.

Procedures & pricing

Transparent USD pricing.

Final cost is set after clinical examination. Local-currency equivalents available on request. Insurance reports issued for international patients.

Common questions

Frequently asked.

Will I be glasses-free with a trifocal IOL?
About 80–85% of trifocal patients report near-total glasses independence (occasional reading glasses for very small print). The remaining 15–20% need glasses for specific tasks. Pre-op counseling sets realistic expectations.
What about night halos?
All multifocal designs cause some glare/halos at night, especially in the first 3–6 months. About 20% of patients experience persistent mild halos. EDOF designs (Symfony, Vivity) are better for halo-prone patients but give less near vision.
I had LASIK 15 years ago — can I still get a premium IOL?
Yes, but the IOL power calculation is more complex. We use post-LASIK formulas (Barrett True-K, Haigis-L) and ray-tracing software. Cornea-trained surgeons get post-LASIK eyes more accurate.
How much cheaper is a premium IOL in Cairo than in Europe?
The IOL itself costs roughly the same anywhere (it's manufactured by Alcon / J&J / Zeiss). Surgical and clinic fees in Cairo are 50–70% lower than equivalent UK / DE centers — bringing the total cost down significantly without compromising quality.
