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.
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.
