Personal IOL consultation
Understand Your IOL Options Before You Commit to Surgery
A private video conversation to translate lens technology into the vision you actually need for reading, screens, driving and daily life — without selling you a lens or choosing a clinic for you.

Why this matters
The missing part of many preoperative conversations
A thoughtful private practice should explain how your eye measurements, visual priorities and tolerance for trade-offs affect the IOL decision. Some clinics do this very well. In others, the conversation is brief, limited to the lenses the clinic routinely stocks, or focused more on price than on everyday vision.
The result can go wrong in either direction: a patient receives the default low-cost lens without realizing that a wider visual range was possible, or pays more for a lens whose compromises do not fit their eyes or lifestyle. More expensive is not automatically better, and cheaper is not automatically sufficient.
Who you will speak with
Oleksii Sologub
Founder of IOL Adviser and a 30-year veteran of the ophthalmic surgery industry. Oleksii is not a surgeon; his role is to explain IOL technology, help patients articulate visual priorities and prepare them for an informed conversation with their doctor.

- Benefits, limitations, glasses dependence and night-vision trade-offs

- A practical shortlist of questions for the surgical consultation
IOL selection
Where this consultation fits in the four-step choice
IOL Adviser helps you clarify Step 2 — your visual priorities — and understand Step 3 — the IOL categories and trade-offs. That preparation makes the conversation with your surgeon more focused and productive.

Before you book
Will you choose the lens for me?
No. I help you understand the options and organize your priorities. The final medical recommendation belongs to your surgeon.
What should I prepare?
The names of any lenses offered, your known refraction or diagnosis, how you use your vision and the questions you want answered. Do not email full medical records unless we agree that they are necessary.
Can you guarantee glasses-free vision?
No responsible consultation can guarantee a refractive or visual outcome. I will explain realistic benefits, limitations and uncertainty.
Which languages are available?
English, Ukrainian and Russian.
