Cataract Surgery & Premium Lens Options
-
Toric lenses to correct astigmatism
- Extended depth of focus (EDOF) lenses to improve range of vision from far to intermediate
- Trifocal lenses to provide a continuous range of vision from near to far
Dr. Spaulding is especially excited to offer the Light Adjustable Lens (LAL), one of the most advanced technologies available in cataract surgery today. Unlike traditional lenses, the LAL can be non-invasively adjusted after surgery using precise light treatments, allowing Dr. Spaulding to customize each patient’s vision once the eye has healed. This means patients can:
-
Fine-tune their prescription after surgery based on their real-world visual experience
- Treat residual astigmatism postoperatively without additional procedures
- Even change their intended visual target (distance, near, or blended vision) after surgery—something no other lens can offer
This technology enables Dr. Spaulding to deliver an unprecedented level of personalization and visual precision, helping patients achieve their best possible vision for their lifestyle.
Research & Publications
He has coauthored multiple book chapters and articles—including contributions to Wills Eye 5-Minute Consult, Glaucoma Today, Glaucoma Physician, and Oregon Healthy Living—and has presented original research at major national and international meetings such as ASCRS, AGS, ARVO, and the American Academy of Neurology.
Recent projects include studies on phacoemulsification efficiency under varying intraocular pressures and medication burden reduction following canaloplasty combined with cataract surgery, as well as collaborative data analysis from the iTrack Global Registry on canaloplasty outcomes.
Training & Professional Involvement
Originally from Cascade, Colorado, Dr. Spaulding earned his undergraduate degree at the University of British Columbia and his medical degree from Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine. He completed his ophthalmology residency at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, followed by a prestigious glaucoma fellowship at the Dean McGee Eye Institute in Oklahoma City.
He is an active member of the American Glaucoma Society, American Academy of Ophthalmology, American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, and the Chandler Grant Glaucoma Society, and is committed to advancing the field through ongoing research, surgical education, and presentations at national meetings.
