Patients with both cataracts and presbyopia can have both conditions corrected at the same time.

AcrySof® ReSTOR®

The most dynamic product of this type is the AcrySof® ReSTOR® IOL, a multifocal lens that treats both cataracts and presbyopia—an age-related condition that hampers people’s ability to see or read near objects.

In clinical trials, four out of five patients who received the AcrySof® in both eyes reported never wearing their glasses or bifocals following surgery.

personalEYES has been implanting the AcrySof® for over four years. personalEYES also offers the AcrySof® Toric IOL, which provides cataract patients with pre-existing astigmatism distance vision without the aid of glasses following surgery.

In a clinical trial, after having the AcrySof ® IQ ReSTOR ® IOL implanted in both eyes, at six months post-op, 78 percent of patients reported not needing glasses.

97% of patients achieved freedom from glasses for distance vision when implanted in both eyes.

Nearly 94% of patients (implanted with the +3.0 D IOL) indicated that they would have the lenses implanted again, according to a patient satisfaction survey.

Here’s what makes AcrySof ® IQ ReSTOR ® IOLs so unique:

• The majority of modern IOLs are made from either silicone or a hard plastic called polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), but AcrySof ® IQ ReSTOR ® IOL uses a soft, foldable acrylic, which makes implantation easier for the surgeon and more comfortable for the patient. A smaller incision also removes the need for stitches, providing faster recovery times and clearer, more youthful vision.
• With AcrySof ® IQ ReSTOR ® IOL, patients with both cataracts and presbyopia can have both conditions corrected at the same time, eliminating the need for spectacles after surgery in most patients.
• Many IOLs today offer ultraviolet (UV) light-filtering protection, as sunlight has long been suspected as a contributor to cataracts by damaging the retina. AcrySof ® IQ ReSTOR ® IOL offers similar filters, protecting your eyes from all high-energy blue light, which includes not only the sun’s harmful rays but also artificial light such as fluorescent bulbs.
