Extended Depth Of Focus Intraocular Lens

WASHINGTON — In this Healio Video Perspective from the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery meeting, Daniel H. Chang, MD, discusses the effect of violet light filtration on extended depth of focus IOL performance.

Not all patients who wish to have spectacle independence are good candidates for multifocal technologies.

Bilateral implantation of the Tecnis Synergy IOL showed “very good” outcomes at all distances at 3 months of follow-up.

A diffractive extended depth of focus IOL helped improve visual acuity at 3 months after bilateral implantation, according to research presented at the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons meeting.

KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — In this video from Kiawah Eye, Karolinne Rocha, MD, PhD, reviews a panel discussion in which participants talked about the Tecnis Eyhance monofocal IOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision), designed to extend the depth of focus.

WAILEA, Hawaii — In this video from Hawaiian Eye 2021, Eric D. Donnenfeld, MD, discusses the potential of new-generation extended depth of focus IOLs.

In this Healio Video Perspective from the virtual ARVO meeting, Aixa Alarcon, PhD, discusses a poster presentation comparing different refractive technologies intended to increase depth of focus.

The ideal lens for our eyes is the one that we had in our youth. The young human crystalline lens provides outstanding image quality and a large degree of accommodation, giving the widest range of vision.

Extended depth of focus IOLs differ from multifocal IOLs in an important way.
