The TECNIS® Multifocal Lens with wavefront-design technology is designed to reduce spherical aberration to improve the quality of vision in various light conditions.   In the eye of a healthy person in their 20s, the spherical aberration of the crystalline lens and cornea balance each other to provide clear, sharp vision. As we age, the spherical aberration of the crystalline lens begins to change, causing the cornea and lens to become out of balance, which causes vision to become blurred. To help you better understand spherical aberration, click here to watch an animation of this process.

 

The TECNIS^® Multifocal Lens is intended to restore your eye’s balance, sharpening your vision. Whether you’re having a picnic in the park or a candlelight dinner, the TECNIS^® Multifocal Lens is intended to restore your ability to see clearly, offering excellent vision up close and far away.

 

A recent study found that patients who received the TECNIS^® Multifocal Lens were faster readers compared to patients who received other lenses.* This is an important benefit if you are an avid reader.
