NEUCHATEL, Switzerland -- (BUSINESS WIRE) --
The company Swiss Advanced Vision (SAV-IOL SA) announced today the launch of LUCIDIS and EDEN, two new intraocular lenses (IOLs) for the cataract surgery, both using the Instant Focus EDOF patented technology. With a brand-new concept, LUCIDIS brings two major achievements for the monofocal market: extending the depth of focus on a monofocal lens while being the first affordable EDOF IOL. Thanks to its advanced refractive design, it allows an extension towards the near and intermediate vision. At the same time, SAV-IOL is building on the success of the InFo lens for the multifocal market: with a convenient blister packaging, EDEN, the reference in the premium hybrid segment, offers high performance continuous vision.
