EDOF Lens Behaves Like a Progressive IOL

Maria Scott, MD

Show Description +

The Symfony EDOF lens (Abbott) is unlike previous multifocal lenses, according to Maria Scott, MD. She discussed how it behaves more like a progressive IOL than other multifocal lenses of the past, and it is available in a toric version, providing up to 2.50 D of astigmatism correction. Patients report less halo and glare than what might be expected with other multifocal IOLs, and the lens corrects for chromatic aberration and enhances contrast.
