What is Alcon lens?

Also, when patients are driving during the night, patients using this type of lens have an increased convenience of reaction time. They also have an increased ability for hazard detection compared to the IOL that has UV only. Therefore, it is worth affirming that blue light filtering helps to boost the functional vision of patients to a great extent, which makes it a perfect choice for many.

• They wonder in amazement at the grade of visual power they receive.
• The TECNIS® Toric uses the biocompatible materials and multifocal design employed in every TECNIS®
• Twenty million people in the U.S. age 40 and older have cataracts.

As a division of Novartis, you can expect the broadest portfolio of medical device products to enhance sight and improve people’s lives. Our purpose is reimagining eye care, and we do that through innovative products, partnerships with eye care professionals and programs that enhance access to quality eye care.

The Science Behind The Acrysof Iq Iol

IOL. Although Alcon PanOptix Trifocal lenses are often implanted during cataract surgery, they can also be an effective solution for a variety of eye conditions apart from cataracts. For example, people who have blurry vision because of an irregularly shaped cornea or high myopia may also reap the benefits of having these IOLs surgically implanted. The Vivity lens was created with a new, non-diffractive technology called X-Wave™. Alcon’s unique non-diffractive technology in the Vivity lens uses all available light to create continuous, extended selection of vision.

Cataract surgery removes the cataract-clouded natural lens of the attention and replaces it having an artificial intraocular lens. Up until about 25 years back, the decision for replacing the cataract was just a single vision IOL. Most people chose distance vision, correcting for near vision with reading glasses.

All IOLs, including toric IOLs, are designed to last the remainder of the patient’s life. They’ll not cloud as your natural lens did as the proteins built up because the cataract developed. Unlike contact lenses, intraocular lenses will never need replacing and they never require any cleaning or other maintenance. You’ll be happy with your astigmatism corrected vision for the rest of your life.

The PanOptix is the first and only trifocal lens in the United States. They provide patients with enhanced vision and clear, complete focus that’s unrivaled by any type of lens. Like other multifocal lenses, trifocal IOLs have different sections set to alternating refractive powers.
