AcrySof® IQ Intraocular Lens

Surgery to treat cataracts is an outpatient procedure where an eye surgeon removes the natural, clouded lens and replaces it with an artificial lens called an intraocular lens (IOL). The AcrySof® IQ intraocular lens (IOL) is a monofocal (focus at one distance) artificial lens for cataract patients who wish to correct natural spherical aberration. The AcrySof® IQ lens uses unique optics to improve image quality and contrast. This particularly helps with driving at dusk or night. The AcrySof ® IQ IOL is the most frequently implanted aspheric monofocal lens.
