Brief Answer:
S/P or Integrated IQ is preferred one.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.

Intraocular lenses are very important part of cataract surgery and not all intraocular lenses provide same result.
The superior quality intraocular lenses provide good vision.

Phacoemulsification surgery is always preferred over manual surgery.

Hence I would advice you to go for phacoemulsification surgery with either S/p or Integrated IQ lens.

Hope this answers your question.

Thank you
