Free yourself from declining vision with cataract treatment in Brussels

Discover how modern cataract surgery replaces the cloudy natural lens with a clear artificial lens, helping you regain sharper, brighter vision

See life clearly again with cataract treatment

Many patients feel calmer, safer, and more independent once cloudy vision no longer makes daily life harder.

B A1

See with more clarity and comfort

Before cataract surgery, vision can seem cloudy, dull, or faded. Reading may become harder. Driving may feel less safe, especially at night. Bright lights may cause glare. After treatment, the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial lens. This can help restore sharper, brighter vision. Many patients find daily tasks feel easier again, from reading and watching TV to recognising faces and moving around with more confidence

B A

Feel less worried about your sight

Living with cataracts can feel unsettling. You may worry about losing independence. You may feel nervous about driving, reading, or needing more help from others. After treatment, many patients feel a deep sense of relief. They feel more secure, more capable, and more in control. Cataract surgery does not just treat cloudy vision. It can also help lift the worry that comes with not seeing clearly.

B A3

Enjoy a brighter, easier day

A good day starts with seeing your home more clearly. You read the morning paper. You check your phone. You go for a walk. You drive with more confidence. You enjoy lunch with family and notice faces, colours, and details again. The day feels lighter and less stressful. Instead of working around poor vision, you can get back to doing the things that make life feel normal and enjoyable.

B A2

Be seen as independent and confident again

Before treatment, cataracts can make a person seem less sure of themselves. They may avoid driving, reading, hobbies, or social plans. After treatment, others may notice a return of confidence. Family may see them moving with more ease. Friends may notice they are more present in conversation. Cataract surgery can help patients feel more like themselves again, with vision that supports their life instead of limiting it

Femto-cataract surgery costs €2,450 per eye with a monofocal lens and €3,800 per eye with a multifocal lens.

This price includes the full treatment, including the advanced femtolaser procedure with the Ziemer Z8, the cataract surgery itself, and the selected high-quality artificial lens.

With a monofocal lens, vision is usually corrected for one main distance, often distance vision. Reading glasses may still be needed for close-up tasks.

With a multifocal lens, the aim is to support vision at several distances. This can help suitable patients reduce their need for glasses for reading, computer work, and distance vision.

The artificial lens is designed to last for life. This makes femto-cataract surgery a durable treatment for cataracts and, for some patients, a way to enjoy clearer vision with less dependence on glasses.

The cost of multifocal implant lenses is between €2,450 and €3,800 per eye. This amount depends on the type of lens you choose and the complexity of the treatment. This price usually includes the cost of the artificial lens, the surgery, and some of the aftercare.

Multifocal implant lenses offer a long-lasting solution for people who would like to see glasses free. For a detailed breakdown of costs and possible financing options, please see our lens implant pricing table. This makes clearer vision attainable regardless of your budget.

A lens implant is an artificial lens that replaces or complements your natural lens of the eye. In a multifocal implant lens, your own lens is replaced with an artificial lens that allows you to see sharply from far, near, as well as at medium distances, such as on the computer, without glasses. Thanks to multifocal technology, you can enjoy glasses-free vision in virtually all everyday situations.

In contrast, an ICL lens (Implantable Collamer Lens) does not replace the natural lens, but is placed in front of your own eye lens. This lens is ideal for younger patients who do not need multifocal correction, but want to correct high myopia, farsightedness or astigmatism. The ICL lens is also completely reversible: the lens can be easily removed or replaced as needed.

At Focus Eye Clinic, we use the most advanced equipment to calculate the strength of the artificial lens or ICL lens with extreme precision. Whether you choose a multifocal implant lens or an ICL lens, both treatments offer a safe and durable solution for sharp and clear vision.

There are different types of artificial lenses that can be chosen depending on your visual needs and lifestyle. Below is an overview of the most common types of artificial lenses:

  • Monofocal artificial lenses: Monofocal art lenses correct vision at one distance, usually distant. These lenses are ideal for people who want to correct primarily farsightedness or nearsightedness, but will need reading glasses for near vision.
  • Multifocal artificial lenses: Multifocal artificial lenses correct both distant and near vision and sometimes medium distances (such as working at a computer). They offer an excellent solution for people who want to see glasses-free and not rely on reading glasses. This type of lens is especially suitable for patients with presbyopia.
  • Toric artificial lenses: Toric artificial lenses are specially designed to correct astigmatism, in addition to other refractive errors such as farsightedness or nearsightedness. These lenses can be either monofocal or multifocal, depending on your needs.
  • ICL lenses (Implantable Collamer Lens): ICL lenses are not used to replace the natural lens, but are placed in front of it. They correct high degrees of nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism and offer a completely reversible solution. These lenses are ideal for younger patients who do not have presbyopia and want to improve their vision.
  • Trifocal artificial lenses: Trifocal artificial lenses are a subtype of multifocal lenses that go even further. They offer sharp vision at three distances: distant, near and intermediate. This type of lens offers maximum independence from glasses.
  • Aspheric artificial lenses: Aspherical lenses improve contrast and reduce light scatter, which is especially beneficial in low-light conditions, such as while driving in the dark. They can be combined with other types of corrections, such as multifocal or toric features.

Choosing the right artificial lens depends on your eye health, visual needs and lifestyle. At Focus Eye Clinic, we perform comprehensive preliminary examinations to choose the lens that best suits your situation.

An artificial lens, such as a multifocal implant lens or an ICL lens, lasts a lifetime. Artificial lenses are made of high-quality, biocompatible materials specifically designed to stay permanently in the eye without wearing out or aging.

In the case of a multifocal implant lens, your natural lens is replaced, and this artificial lens continues to function for the rest of your life. In the case of an ICL lens, which is placed on top of the natural lens, the lens can be adjusted or removed if necessary, but the expected life span is also unlimited.

Thanks to durable materials and advanced technologies, you don't have to worry about replacing the artificial lens in the future. This makes lens implantation a lifetime investment in glasses-free vision and a better quality of life.

Recovery after a lens implant is usually quick. Most patients experience significantly improved vision within just a few days. However, full recovery and stabilization of vision can take 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the type of lens (such as a multifocal artificial lens or an ICL lens) and your individual situation.

During the first few weeks, it is important to avoid certain activities, such as strenuous exercise, swimming and rubbing your eyes, to promote recovery. Your doctor will advise you on the recovery process and schedule any checkups to make sure everything is going well.
