Clareon® IOL Precision Edge Design

An internal image of an eye implanted with straight edge IOL over a black background. As light enters the eyes, the visual depicts significantly more reflected glare in vitro. An image in another bubble highlights the precision edge design of a straight edge IOL.

 

Straight Edge IOL

*Evaluated in a schematic model eye and in vitro evaluation of positive dysphotopsia or glare types photic phenomena. Optical ray trace simulations of incoming light were generated based on a collimated light source with a wavelength of 550 nm for various off-axis angles of illumination (n=5 IOLs per group, +25.0 D). The simulation analyses were verified using a laboratory glare bench-top measurement system, whereby glare components formed from off-axis illumination of IOLs fitted into an artificial eye model were measured. Only clinical studies can confirm whether the differences observed between the IOLs in vitro are clinically significant.

Compared with TECNIS* 1-Piece and enVista* IOL in an in vitro study. Images were captured using a Keyence video microscope under precisely controlled conditions. Each IOL (+25.0 D) was placed into a wet cell model eye containing BSS® and a spherical aberration neutral simulated cornea. For each IOL, the target image was captured using the identical test conditions and camera settings without additional focusing. All elements (the Keyence microscope, the IOL in wet cell, the model cornea, and the target image) were located in exactly the same place using the exact same imaging settings on the Keyence in the manual mode. Optics are presented in black and white for illustrative purposes only.

Clareon® Guards Against PCO for Long-term ​Visual Quality3,16​

A circular visual of a microscopic image of the Clareon IOL with a teal-coloured line highlighting the continuous posterior barrier. Two circular callouts also appear. The first callout over a teal-coloured background states that the Clareon IOL achieves an Nd:YAG rate of 1.5% at 1 year. The second callout, over a grey background, states that the AcrySof IQ IOL achieves an Nd:YAG rate of 2.2% at 1 year.

STABLEFORCE® Haptics help Clareon® deliver superior axial stability compared to other IOLs3-5,14*†

Variations in the capsular bag size and IOL haptic design lead to IOL axial displacement that can result in residual refractive errors.4

Two illustrations of Clareon Toric IOLs. “Ninety-five percent” appears in the first illustration, indicating that 95% of Clareon IOLs had an absolute rotation of ≤5 degrees on Day 1. “Two degrees” appears in the second illustration, indicating that 2 degrees was the mean rotation of Clareon IOLs from baseline at 6 months post-op.

*In an additional analysis, 98.4% of Clareon® IOLs had an absolute rotation of ≤10° between surgery and 6 months.


†Baseline is defined as ≤1-hour post-surgery in a randomized controlled trial (N=141).
