IOL Advances

According to investigators, halos are the most common complaint for patients who received an implantable collamer lens to address myopia.

Beginning in the 1970s, James J. Salz, MD, was part of a group of ophthalmologists who first inserted intraocular lens implants during cataract surgery.

The EVO/EVO+ Visian Implantable Collamer Lens provides visual freedom independent of contact lenses and glasses.

The company will begin commercialization of the IC-8 small aperture IOL, used for cataract patients, upon successful completion of the manufacturing facility inspections and receipt of an official approval order from the FDA, which the company estimates in Q2 2022.

The approval will allow LensGen to move forward with the IDE pivotal trial with the ultimate goal of seeking premarket approval in the United States.

Lens combines diffractive multifocal and extended depth-of-focus properties.

Bi-sign design compensates for aberrations resulting from misalignment.

According to the company, more than 400 eyes of patients from 12 European countries have been fitted with the TECNIS Eyhance Toric II IOL, with surgeons surveyed noting that their patients are pleased with the results.

Intermediate/near vision improvements are achieved without compromising distance vision.

Johnson & Johnson Vision announced today that the FDA has granted 510(k) clearance and CE mark for its VERTIAST Vision System, a next-generation phacoemulsification innovation.

Phakic option provides hope to patients who are not candidates for laser vision correction.

To mark the 20th anniversary of its TECNIS IOLs, Johnson & Johnson Vision is launching the “See More” campaign to educate patients and physicians on what is possible with cataract surgery.

Daniel H. Chang, MD, shares data on a recent study involving a new violet light-filtering chromophore in a preclinical computer simulation testing and randomized clinical study.

Phakic lenses are proving to be excellent additions to refractive practices.

Procedure increases lens stability and improves visual acuity in patients.
