Optical lens edger Femto-Masking

automatic

Femto-Masking by ROWIAK is a newly developed procedure that can improve near and intermediate vision of monofocal intraocular lenses dramatically - non-invasive, fast, easy to use and with an immediate wow effect for patients. The procedure can be used for new implants as well as for implants inserted up to three years ago. Anyone who needs an artificial lens because of cataract disease has to live with the fact that they can no longer achieve the visual comfort they had before the disease. Despite constant development, the currently available artificial lenses (intraocular lenses IOL) do not manage to produce sharp images at all distances without limitations, as the human lens is able to do. Nevertheless, more than 30 million artificial lenses are implanted worldwide every year to prevent cataract patients from going blind. Depending on the country, about 95% of these are so-called monofocal lenses, which usually provide sharp vision at a distance. Patients need glasses for the near and intermediate range, for example for reading or working at the computer. The pinhole effect for the eye has been demonstrated to work. Recently implants have been on the market that use an optical principle from photography. They achieve significantly more sharpness in near and intermediate vision. In photography, a hole of adjustable size is inserted in front of the camera lens with the help of the so-called aperture, thus adjusting the depth of field of the image. A smaller aperture creates a depth of field over several distance levels.
