Description

Yellow hydrophobic and cryolathed acrylic monofocal IOL in a preloaded delivery system

Yellow chromophore:

• potentially shield the retina from short wavelength light

Material:

• Hydrophobic acrylic
• cryolathed = glistening free optic
• optimal refractive index of the material is 1.47 = minimises lens induced dysphotopsias
• anterior round edged polishing = prevents internal reflection and glares

Negative spherical aberration is provided to:

• imitates results of the young natural crystalline lens
• enhances depth of focus and contrast sensitivity in mesopic and scotopic conditions
• withstands a tilt of 10 degree and decentration of 1.0mm

PCO prevention:

• Truedge technology = a 360°square edge
• 0.1mm projection at the optic-haptic junction prevents cell migration even through the haptic
• 3° vault height at optic haptic junction
• enhanced tackiness of the material

High ABBE number of 55:

• better colour perception to the patient by reducing chromatic aberration

Lower glass transition temperature of 8°C:

• keeps the Aurovue EV flexible even at lower temperatures

Force enduring haptic:

• better rotational stability and centration
• accommodates in all capsular bag size
