Johnson & Johnson (J&J) has introduced the TECNIS Odyssey IOL in the Middle East, Canada, and Europe, expanding its range of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (PC-IOLs).
This new lens is designed to provide patients with quality, continuous vision across all distances, significantly reducing the dependency on glasses.
The TECNIS Odyssey IOL is built upon the TECNIS platform, which combines optics and materials to deliver clear, high-contrast vision.
According to the company, it is designed to enhance visual freedom for patients, providing accurate vision for activities ranging from reading to driving.
Individuals who have received the IOL reported they are satisfied with their overall vision without glasses.
The IOL’s freeform diffractive surface is engineered to provide seamless vision at near, intermediate, and far distances, with 96% of people satisfied with their ability to read on tablets or smartphones, and 97% with their distance vision.
