At the Benjamin Eye Institute, we are thrilled to introduce the latest innovation in intraocular lenses (IOLs) from Bausch and Lomb – the Aspire non-diffractive extended depth of focus IOL. Available in both Toric and Spherical versions, the Aspire IOL offers an exceptional option for patients who dream of reducing their dependence on glasses for both near and far vision.
The Aspire IOL is designed to provide a continuous range of vision, allowing patients to see clearly at various distances. This extended depth of focus helps reduce the need for glasses or contact lenses, enhancing the overall quality of life.
The Aspire IOL employs a non-diffractive design that minimizes halos and glare, which are common with traditional diffractive IOLs. This innovation ensures superior visual clarity and comfort, especially in low-light conditions. Additionally, because of the non-diffractive design, there is no loss of contrast sensitivity. This makes the Aspire IOL suitable for patients with some degree of retinal pathology, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or macular puckers. It can also be used in patients with glaucoma without penalty.
Non-diffractive IOLs are less expensive to manufacture, making them a more affordable option for patients seeking high-quality vision correction.
The Aspire IOL is more forgiving to residual refractive errors or ocular surface irregularities, such as corneal scars or dry eyes. This flexibility ensures better visual outcomes for a broader range of patients.
The Aspire IOL is available in both Toric and Spherical versions. The Toric version is specifically designed for patients with astigmatism, providing precise correction and improved vision quality. The Spherical version is ideal for patients without astigmatism, offering outstanding visual outcomes.
Patients who opt for the Aspire IOL can expect remarkable improvements in both near and distance vision. While these IOLs do have a shallower depth of focus compared to diffractive multifocal IOLs, our expertise in offsetting target refractions allows us to achieve excellent binocular vision, where one eye sees better at near and the other at distance.
With the Aspire IOL, patients can enjoy greater freedom from glasses and contact lenses, making daily activities more convenient and enjoyable.
The non-diffractive design of the Aspire IOL significantly reduces visual disturbances, providing crisp, clear vision even in challenging lighting conditions.
Whether you have astigmatism or not, the Aspire IOL offers tailored solutions to meet your unique vision needs.
The affordability of the Aspire IOL makes advanced vision correction accessible to a wider range of patients.

PREMIUM CATARACT SURGERY: NON-DIFFRACTIVE EDOF IOL'S AT BENJAMIN EYE INSTITUTE
An IOL exchange is a specialized procedure used to remove and replace a previous lens implant when the original IOL no longer provides the best possible vision or when a different lens may better support the patient’s needs.
Cataract surgery today is no longer just about removing a cloudy lens—it’s about improving overall eye health and long-term visual outcomes. For patients who have both cataracts and glaucoma (or elevated eye pressure), modern ophthalmology now offers a powerful combined solution: cataract surgery with OMNI® minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).
Cataracts are a common vision concern, yet misinformation still makes many people hesitant about seeking treatment. At Benjamin Eye Institute, we're here to clear the confusion and ensure you have the facts about cataract surgery.
Meet Ronnie, a longtime friend and patient of Dr. Arthur Benjamin, who has been on an incredible vision correction journey! From wearing rigid gas permeable contact lenses and being severely nearsighted (-16 to -17 prescription) to undergoing Intraocular Phakic Contact Lens (ICL) implantation, LASIK, and now Cataract Surgery—his case is a true eye care success story!
Dr. Arthur Benjamin is one of the first surgeons in Los Angeles to offer custom laser cataract surgery with the revolutionary ALLY® Adaptive Cataract Treatment System.

Are you experiencing blurry vision, increased sensitivity to light, or trouble seeing at night? These could be signs of cataracts—a common age-related condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Fortunately, cataract surgery is a safe, effective, and life-changing procedure that restores clear vision and enhances your quality of life.
The first thing you should do after receiving the official diagnosis of cataract is to remain calm because they are easily curable. Making the appropriate choices for a location and doctor for treatment is the second and most important step. Here are 8 Important Questions You Should Ask Your Surgeon. By asking any potential surgeon these eight questions, you can feel confident you’re putting your vision in the right hands, and you will soon say goodbye to your cataracts and hello to the clearest vision you have ever experienced.
