Clarion Monofocal IOL

Alcon Clareon® Monofocal IOL

Clarity That Lasts a Lifetime

The Alcon Clareon lens is one of the newest innovations in monofocal lens technology, designed with long-term clarity and visual stability in mind. Made with ultra-pure, glistening-free lens material, Clareon was engineered to minimize internal haze and provide crystal-clear optics for years to come.

Benefits of the Clareon Lens:

  • Exceptional clarity with advanced edge design to reduce glare and halos
  • Glistening-free material for long-term transparency
  • Stable lens positioning for predictable vision outcomes
  • Ideal for patients who prioritize sharp distance vision without visual disturbances


Clareon also features Alcon’s AutonoMe® delivery system, allowing for more precise placement during surgery—a key benefit when performed by a skilled Austin cataract surgeon using image-guided technology.

Whether you’re golfing in Kyle, driving through downtown Austin, or enjoying time outdoors in New Braunfels, the Clareon lens delivers dependable visual performance for your lifestyle.

Johnson & Johnson Tecnis® 1-Piece Monofocal IOL

Engineered for Contrast and Night Vision

The J&J Tecnis monofocal lens has long been a leader in cataract surgery for its ability to restore crisp, high-contrast vision. This lens is especially popular among patients who frequently drive at night or who want to reduce visual distortion in low-light conditions.

Highlights of the Tecnis Monofocal Lens:

  • Reduces spherical aberration to enhance image sharpness
  • Optimized for contrast sensitivity and night vision
  • Lightweight and flexible design for surgical ease and long-term comfort
  • Available in a wide range of powers, allowing tailored correction


The Tecnis monofocal lens is a trusted choice for our patients in Killeen, Austin, and surrounding areas who seek functional, high-performance distance vision without compromise.

Which Lens Is Right for You?

While both Clareon and Tecnis monofocal lenses offer exceptional clarity, there are subtle differences in design and performance. During your cataract evaluation, your Austin cataract surgeon will walk you through the benefits of each and help you select the lens that best fits your vision goals and lifestyle.

We typically recommend Clareon for:

  • Patients who want the most modern material with long-term stability
  • Individuals concerned about glare and light scatter
  • Patients prioritizing a smooth surgical experience with AutonoMe® injection


We typically recommend Tecnis for:

  • Patients who drive often at night or in low-light settings
  • Those with early signs of macular degeneration needing better contrast
  • Individuals preferring a well-established, extensively studied IOL
