Panoptix Pro

The PanOptix® Pro is a next-generation trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) from Alcon, designed for cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange. It's an enhanced version of the original PanOptix IOL, building on its success to offer even better vision at all distances.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Trifocal Vision: It focuses light at three distances: near (reading), intermediate (computer), and far (driving), aiming for significant independence from glasses.

• ENLIGHTEN® NXT Optical Technology: This proprietary technology allows the lens to capture 94% of incoming light, redirecting light that was previously lost to scatter and resulting in brighter, sharper vision, particularly in low-light conditions.

• Reduced Halos and Glare: The refined optics minimize visual disturbances like halos and glare, which can be a concern with some multifocal lenses, leading to more comfortable vision, especially at night.

• Enhanced Image Contrast: It provides a 16% increase in contrast between intermediate and distance vision, leading to a sharper and more vivid visual experience.

• Clareon® Material: The lens is made from Alcon's advanced Clareon® material, which is designed to stay crystal clear for life and includes built-in UV and blue light protection.

• AutonoMe® Delivery System: PanOptix Pro is the first multifocal lens in the U.S. to use this automated, preloaded delivery system, allowing for precise and consistent lens placement during surgery.

• Toric Options: It's available in toric versions for patients with astigmatism.

How it Differs from the Original PanOptix:

• Improved Light Utilization: PanOptix Pro captures approximately 6% more light and cuts stray scatter by about 50%, compared to the original PanOptix.

• Better Contrast: It provides 16% better contrast at computer distance.

Considerations:

• While the PanOptix Pro significantly reduces the need for glasses, some patients may still need them for very fine print or specific low-light conditions.

• Some patients may experience mild halos or glare, particularly in the early weeks after surgery, although this is often mild and resolves with time.

• It's not recommended for patients with significant macular disease, irregular astigmatism, or certain other eye conditions.

• Choosing the right IOL is an individual decision and requires consultation with your eye care professional.
