Did you know your eyes work a lot like a camera lens? When the lens is clear, the world comes into focus. But over time, cataracts can cloud that clarity. Harvard-trained ophthalmologist Dr. Dagny Zhu is back to explain how cataract surgery, paired with intraocular lenses (IOLs), may do more than simply restore vision—it may even upgrade it. Dr. Zhu talks about how some IOLs may help patients reach 20/20 vision (yes, really) and what that could mean for reading, driving, screens, and how often you rely on glasses. If you’re curious about cataracts, surgery, or whether premium IOLs are worth it (we think so—but always check with your vision provider), this episode brings it all into focus.​
