The implant, dubbed the RayOne EMV, features a spherical aberration to improve vision for distance and intermediate ranges, which decreases a patient’s need for glasses. 

The procedure was performed at Reno-based Visionary Surgery Center of Nevada, which also offers cataract and glaucoma procedures.
