Hydrophilic Acrylic Foldable Intraocular Lens with Water Contents 26%

Hydrophilic Acrylic Foldable Intraocular Lens with Water Contents are copolymers of HEMA and PMMA, with water contents of 26%, and are much more resistant to deformation and opacification.

Foldable IOLs have helped alter the face of cataract surgery by improving healing time, limiting complications and making phacoemulsification the standard procedure over extracapsular surgery, all in the span of 2 decades.

At first, the new lenses and procedures were not widely accepted at their advent in the mid-1980s, physicians said. PMMA IOLs were the standard IOLs used at that time, and they were typically inserted through 5-mm to 7-mm incisions after extracapsular surgery. More than 20 years later, most surgeons now implant foldable acrylic or silicone IOLs after phaco, and PMMA lenses are used only in special cases.
