Monofocal intraocular lens AcrySof IQ Vivity®

AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL Delivers Excellent Distance, Intermediate and Functional Near Vision AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL is the First and Only presbyopia-correcting IOL that uses a next generation optical principle, called wavefront-shaping, that stretches and shifts the light ✓ The AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL uses wavefront-shaping technology, which is invisible to the naked eye, making it virtually indistinguishable from the AcrySof® IQ monofocal ✓ Surface Transition #1: A slightly elevated smooth plateau (~1 µm high) that stretches the wavefront, creating a continuous focal range ✓ Surface Transition #2: A small curvature change (across the 2.2 mm region) that shifts the wavefront to utilise all available light energy Unique Mechanism of Action The AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL uses wavefront-shaping technology to deliver distance, intermediate, and functional near vision for patients, as well as a clinically proven monofocal visual disturbance profile. The wavefront-shaping technology of the AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL is called X-WAVE™ Technology and is proprietary to Alcon Wavefront-shaping stretches the light. It doesn’t bend light like refraction, or split light like diffraction. Just like a monofocal, Vivity® utilises essentially all of the transmitted light energy that passes through the lens. The smooth surface transition elements on the AcrySof IQ Vivity® IOL stretch and shift the wavefront to provide a full range of vision with functional near visual acuity to help reduce spectacle dependence.
