Since its approval by the FDA in May 2013, the toric IOL has been available in mid-range powers between 17 and 25 D. The expansion now includes 10 to 16.5 (in half diopter steps) making the toric IOL available to cataract patients throughout the most popular power range, according to the company.

Additional powers from 25.5 to 33 D are expected later this fall.

Additionally, Bausch + Lomb’s ZeroPhaco I/A handpiece was introduced for femtocataract surgery.
