Extensive Research Proves AcrySof® Has Low Nd:YAG Rates at 3 and 5 years2*

Blue icon of a circle with multiple eyes inside. Blue text under the circle reads “Royal College of Ophthalmology & National Ophthalmology Database Unique Report. Study conducted on over 600,000 eyes.” Bar graph illustrating that in a study conducted on more than 600,000 eyes, AcrySof IQ showed reduced PCO and the lowest Nd:YAG rates at 3 and 5 years, compared to single-piece and hydrophilic IOLs.

Unprecedented data demonstrates AcrySof® Reduces Nd: YAG treatment4-8

Multiple studies conducted across various countries reveal why AcrySof® IQ should be the right IOL choice.

Visual chart highlighting data from multiple countries showing that AcrySof has the lowest Nd:YAG rates at 3 years, compared to other IOLs.
Two illustrations. The first is an illustration of an AcrySof IQ IOL. A light blue circle is placed on the centre of the IOL to draw focus. A light blue line is connected to the IOL with text that reads “AcrySof IQ Centered.” The second is an illustration of other generic IOLs. A light blue line is connected to the IOL with text that reads “Other IOL Decentered.” Smaller text underneath reads “When haptics cannot adapt to bag size, they push the IOL off the center as bag shrinks.”

Reduced development of PCO

 

AcrySof® IQ material promotes clear capsules and reduces secondary treatments:1,3

 

  • Brilliant AcrySof® IQ hydrophobic acrylic material provides the highest bonding with the capsule compared to competitor IOLs.*
  • Proprietary edge design helps to block cell migration between the optic and the capsular bag.

 

*compared to PMMA, HOYx and TEC. IOLs, n=32 IOLs per group, P<0.001

2 illustrations. The first one shows the AcrySof IOL bonded with the posterior capsul with not cell migration. The second illustration shows other IOLs with cells migrating between the optic and posterior capsule.

Excellent Quality of Vision

 

AcrySof® IQ BioMechanics provide excellent refractive outcomes

Illustration showing how STABLEFORCE Haptics allow AcrySof IQ IOLs to fit in any capsular bag size: 10.5 mm, 10.0 mm, 9.5 mm, 9.0 mm. Two illustrations. The first is an illustration of an AcrySof IQ IOL. A light blue circle is placed on the centre of the IOL to draw focus. A light blue line is connected to the IOL with text that reads “AcrySof IQ Centered.” The second is an illustration of other generic IOLs. A light blue line is connected to the IOL with text that reads “Other IOL Decentered.” Smaller text underneath reads “When haptics cannot adapt to bag size, they push the IOL off the center as bag shrinks.” 2 images illustrating how AcrySof IQ IOL has greater axial stability than enVisto MX60, which helps to reduce refractive errors.

Available in two filtering properties that mimic the natural human lens1,16,18

UV and Blue light filter

 

Proprietary chromophore that can help filter harmful light sources, similar to the healthy human lens1,18

 

The AcrySof® IQ blue light filter can provide patients with a greater tolerance for extreme bright light as well as faster visual recovery after high bright light exposure1,16-19

UV filter
 

AcrySof® provides amongst the highest level of UV radiation filter. Some IOLs allow parts of UVA radiation to pass through the IOL and to the retina.1,12-15

*Other IOLs include Jxx Tecnxx, and Bxx Envisxx. See UV filter chart below for further details.

AcrySof® blue light filter helps patients manage conditions they encounter every day.1,16-19*†

 

  • Greater tolerance for extreme bright light16,18,19
  • Faster visual recovery after high bright light exposure16,18,19

 

Improved Performance in Challenging Conditions*

Illustration showing a car labelled as AcrySof IQ IOL and a car labelled as non-blue light filtering IOL. Text on screen reads, “40+ metres (~3 school buses) stopping distance at 88 km/h.”

*A subset of patients (n = 44) underwent testing in a validated night driving simulator. Patients were tested monocularly under conditions which simulate city and rural settings under normal, glare and fog conditions.

†AcrySof® IQ IOL patients had an average increase of 40+ metres feet versus the control lens in which to stop after identifying a warning sign in a rural setting under fog conditions at 88 km/h.

High Level of UV Protection1

AcrySof® provides amongst the highest level of UV radiation filter close to the 400nm cutoff1,12-15,23

Bar chart illustrates how AcrySof is the only IOL that provides 100% UV light protection. Other IOLs provide incomplete UV light protection.

Fully usable optic helps reduce visual disturbances

 

The AcrySof® IQ aspheric optic surface is designed to reduce edge glare.1

Proven Stability and Excellent Performance with AcrySof® IQ Toric IOL

Pie chart showing that 91.9% of AcrySof IQ Toric IOLs are within 5° of post-operative alignment. The majority of the circle is blue, and the remaining part is white

AcrySof® IQ Toric IOLs had significantly lower incidence of repositioning compared to other IOLs27*

 

Based on Retrospective comparison to TECNxx Toric and HOxx 3xx Toric Intraocular lens, (n=9430 eyes, p<0.0001)

Three white icons of an IOL with haptics placed at various angles to indicate rotation. Text in the centre of the lens reads, “TEC. Toric IOLs are 8 times more likely to require repositioning.”
