The enVista Aspire Toric intraocular lens (IOL) is the astigmatism-correcting version of this innovative Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) lens we offer our cataract patients. The Aspire Toric offers the same unique benefits as its presbyopia-correcting cousin. It’s designed to extend your range of clear vision to improve how you see at distance, intermediate, and near ranges. This lens can allow you to reduce your reliance on eyeglasses for a number of activities. What’s more, the Aspire is well-suited for using digital devices, which as we all know is the norm in our lives today.
Improved Range of Vision
Aspire offers a significant innovation compared to standard monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) called Intermediate Optimized (IO) optics. Aspire’s IO optics allow for a range of vision beyond one focal point that broadens your depth of focus for intermediate and distance vision. This can be particularly useful when using digital devices such as smartphones and tablets. And when used in both eyes in a specific configuration, the Aspire IOL also aids in enhancing near vision.
Post-Surgery Recovery
Aspire’s glistening-free optic material and proprietary StableFlex® technology allows the IOL to unfold more quickly, smoothly, and efficiently inside the eye. This leads to better recovery of the optic to its desired shape, more efficiency in the operating room, and less surgical time. The less surgical time required typically means better post-operative outcomes.
Astigmatism-Correcting Accuracy
The Aspire toric lens is unique in that it can treat less than one diopter of astigmatism of the cornea. To put this in perspective, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, an eye with no astigmatism equals zero (0) diopters. This means the Aspire toric can treat astigmatism more precisely than other toric lenses.
The enVista Aspire Toric Lens is one of several advanced premium lenses that we offer, and you can rest assured that our doctors will help you make the right choice.
