Thanks to the design of their optic, they do not introduce higher-order aberrations, providing a better quality of vision
Uniform power from the center to the periphery of the optic, for a predictable visual outcome in all patients regardless of the shape of the cornea, size and center of the pupil or the capsular bag
They maintain the natural positive spherical aberration of the cornea, which may resultin a greater depth of field compared with aberration correcting IOLs
The Akreos® platform has an aspheric design that adapts to a wide range of patients*
The optical performance of an IOL with AO technology should be better than that of a standard spherical IOL
The Akreos® AO MICS and Akreos® AO lenses are crafted from an acrylic hydrophilic material that makes it optimal for today’s micro incision cataract surgery requirements. The lenses can be easily compressed to fit through a 1.8 mm incision; it unfolds smoothly once implanted into the eye and recovers its initial shape without damage.
Minimize the surgically induced corneal astigmatism (SIA) and preserve optical properties of the cornea
Minimally traumatic surgery, providing better postoperative outcomes than standard small incision phacoemulsification
MICS favors the use of fluidics, reducing the use of phacoemulsification power
Reduces the risk for intraoperative anterior chamber instability
Less incision bleeding during the surgery
Higher structural stability of the anterior chamber
Easy in construction and less incidence of postoperative endophthalmitis
