The Eye Institute of Utah offers a variety of Multifocal Intraocular Lenses

If you have a strong desire for greater independence from glasses or contacts, then a multifocal implant may be right for you. These lenses offer a wider range of vision than traditional implants and studies show that up to 80% of patients no longer use any form of optical correction after having this procedure. Each lens has a unique design, with certain advantages for distance, near and intermediate vision tasks. This translates into greater freedom and independence for you at work, home or wherever your hobbies and interests lead you.

ReZoom

Crystalens
	The Crystalens is a unique, flexible lens that provides excellent distance and intermediate vision. It is also a great choice for computer users and those involved with near tasks slightly beyond a standard reading distance.
