The Eyhance IOL has a refractive optical design with a high-order aspheric anterior sur- face that creates a continuous power progression. This refractive profile increases the power of the enhanced monofocal IOL con- tinuously from the periphery to the center of the lens to extend the depth of focus. In the European “Quantum” clinical study on the TECNIS Eyhance, the prospective, multicenter randomized clinical trial showed significant improvement in monocular inter- mediate vision at 66 cm and improved binocular intermediate vision. Overall, Dr. Auffarth explained that, compared to aspheric monofocal IOLs, patients benefited from the TECNIS Eyhance IOL with enhanced intermediate visual acuity with no glistening, no light scattering, and no risk of calcification due to hydrophilic materials. Han Bor Fam, MD, Singapore, provided insight on premium IOL innovation for presbyopic patients. With ZFR00, there is a syner- gy in combining diffractive multifocal technology and extended depth of focus (EDOF) lens while delivering, continuously, con- trasty vision across a wide functional range. Additionally, ZFR00 provides high levels of binocular visual acuity from far to near. There are also many challenges to successful toric IOL usage including inertia, biometry, correct implantation technique, and EWAP Daily News - 9
