The VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform, a project with Technolas Perfect Vision in Germany, does not yet have marketing approval. It is capable of supporting cataract, refractive and therapeutic procedures in a single platform.

 

The enVista glistening-free, hydrophobic acrylic IOL has received CE Mark approval in the European Union and is awaiting FDA approval. In addition to its glistening-free material, the lens is designed to minimize posterior capsular opacification, which causes vision to become clouded after surgery.
