The AcrySof^® ReSTOR^® IOL Optical System

Better vision quality throughout the range

The AcrySof^® ReSTOR^® IOL features a unique optical system that merges the strengths of both apodized diffractive and refractive technologies for improved vision quality at all distances without the need for glasses.

Near, Intermediate and Distance Vision - The Full Range of Vision

The AcrySof^® ReSTOR^® IOL uses the central apodized diffractive region and +4.0 D correction to focus a clear image on the retina for near vision, while the peripheral refractive region, also paired with the central apodized region, helps improve distance visual acuity. As a result, 84% of AcrySof^® ReSTOR^® IOL patients vs. 23% of monofocal IOL patients have achieved a combined uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/25 or better with near visual acuity of 20/32 or better, as shown in clinical studies

Also, clinical studies indicate that AcrySof^® ReSTOR^® IOL patients have functional intermediate vision for daily tasks such as applying make-up, shaving, reading labels on a shelf and viewing a computer monitor.
