Addressing the negative dysphotopsia salute
IOL implantations are one of the most successful global surgical procedures, with an estimated 12 to 15 million IOLs inserted each year. This number is projected to grow considerably over the next 20 years due to the aging population and, most importantly, patient demand for higher quality vision.
Like Lenstec’s Softec HD, the Softec HDO ( HD Oval) implant was designed to meet these higher patient expectations in a lens that requires no instrumentation or skill changes by the surgeon and offers the added benefit of Precision Series (0.25 diopter breaks) labeling for consistently improved outcomes, plus the benefits of a larger optic size- 5.75mm x 6.5mm, suggested to be implanted horizontally. Ophthalmologists now have the availability of the largest single-piece,foldable acrylic optic sold in the US.
The Softec HDO addresses the issue of spherical aberration inherent in conventional monofocal spherical IOLs by adjusting the optic with a patented design on both the anterior and posterior surfaces. The curvature of the lens optic is calculated and shaped to achieve the ideal single point of focus. This enhanced aspheric optic has minimal spherical aberrations and results in sharper vision for the patient.

- Addresses both negative and positive corneal aberration profiles
- Forgiving of tilt and decentration
- Increase small target sensitivity
- No skills or instrumentation change
