TECNIS Multifocal Toric II Intraocular Lens
This is the first multifo-
cal IOL on J&J's new
Toric II Platform with
astigmatism correction
capabilities. The fact
that these popular mul-
tifocal lenses now
come in toric versions
is a big plus. It provides
another avenue to cor-
rect both cataracts and
astigmatism during the
same procedure. This product also features increased friction and sur-
face texture on its haptics, which provides rotational stability. That's
important because the quality of refractive and astigmatic correction
can decrease if alignment of the lens is off by as little as six degrees.
Now that the outside of this square-edge lens is a bit stickier due to its
new "frosted haptics" design, there's more friction between the haptics
and the capsular bag, so it doesn't rotate after implantation.
