An Aspheric, Hydrophobic, Acrylic IOL Design With Unique Optic Holes
AAO 2019 Video Program
Cataract/Anterior Segment
This video presents outcomes of a new acrylic IOL design with four unique holes in the optic margin. We concluded that this design prevents early and late capsular bag distension, myopic refractive shift due to change in effective lens position, IOL tilt and posterior capsule wrinkling. IOL becomes stable in the bag with immediate effect, which is crucial for toric IOL stability. We believe that this can lead to long-term reduction in chances of posterior capsule opacification.
