Advanced Cataract Surgery with Premium Lens Options

As one of the leading cataract surgeons in Orange County, Dr. Feinerman offers patients advanced intraocular lens (IOL) technology designed to restore clarity and minimize reliance on glasses. Options include:
•Light Adjustable Lens – the only IOL that can be fine-tuned after surgery, allowing you to “test drive” and adjust your vision before it’s permanently set
•Clareon® PanOptix® Pro – a trifocal lens delivering clear vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges
•Clareon® Vivity® – an extended depth-of-focus lens that provides excellent distance and intermediate vision with minimal visual disturbances
•enVista Envy™ – a full-range trifocal IOL featuring ActivSync™ optic technology for optimized vision in all lighting conditions, with 86% of U.S. trial patients reporting little to no halos, glare, or starbursts; available in toric design for astigmatism correction
•FINEVISION HP – a trifocal lens optimized for high contrast and sharp vision across all distances
•Apthera™ IOL: a pinhole-optic lens that extends depth of focus and is particularly effective for patients with irregular corneas
•Toric IOLs – available in most of the above platforms, toric versions correct astigmatism simultaneously with cataract removal
Dr. Feinerman served as a Principal Investigator in the FDA clinical trial for the enVista Toric IOL platform, giving him firsthand expertise with this lens family.
His approach goes beyond cataract removal. By tailoring lens selection to each patient’s lifestyle and visual goals, he provides sharper clarity, better contrast, and a full range of functional vision, for activities like reading, computer use, and night driving.
Additional lens options are available; Dr. Feinerman will recommend the best fit based on your individual needs and lifestyle.
