Your Choices for Replacement Lenses are Expanding.

Vivity Intraocular Implant

AcrySof IQ Vivity is an UV-absorbing and blue light filtering foldable intraocular lens (IOL). This IOL, compared to a monofocal IOL, provides an extended range of vision from distance to near without increasing the incidence of visual disturbances.

Panoptix Intraocular Implant

The new lens uses ENLIGHTEN®Optical Technology, a proprietary design that optimizes intermediate vision without compromising near and distance vision. Available in spherical and toric designs, PanOptix is built on Alcon’s proven AcrySof IQ IOL platform.

Toric Intraocular Implant

 The unique optical design of the ACTIVEFOCUS toric lens delivers both crisp, clear distance vision and a range of vision for patients who desire less dependence on glasses. The ACTIVEFOCUS  toric IOL is the only multifocal toric IOL in which the central portion is 100 percent dedicated to distance vision.
