Multifocal IOL gives you spectacle independence post surgery. Your dependence on spectacle is reduced post Multifocal implant. Not all patients are suitable for Multifocal implant. A meticulous preop work up is needed to determine the suitability. The major issue post Multifocal IOL is presence of glare and haloes especially. At nights. Some patients get accustomed to this some don't. I have operated on patients coming in from Singapore Malaysia and uae for this as it's cheaper in India to get a multifocal implant.
