introducing the AcrySof^® IQ IOL
Fine Tuning the Art of Vision

With improved image quality added to a proven platform, the difference is clear. Our newest lens delivers performance that’s state-of-the-art.

Thinner aspheric design for improved image quality¹

	AcrySof® IQ IOL edge profile is up to 50% thinner than other aspheric optic IOLs¹
	9% reduction in central lens thickness possible through patented hydrophobic AcrySof® acrylic material†¹
	Ideal for small-incision cataract surgery

Blue light filtration for uncompromised color perception and quality of life²

	Results of a recent study show equal or better color perception with the AcrySof® Natural chromophore compared to color perception with the AcrySof® Single-Piece lens²
	AcrySof® Natural IOL gives patients the same level of confidence and functionality as the AcrySof® Single-Piece IOL.

Single-Piece AcrySof® acrylic design for superior biocompatibility and stability^3-8

	Biomechanics and Biomaterial you trust from Alcon®
	STABLEFORCE® haptics keep AcrySof® IQ IOL highly stable and centered in the bag
	AcrySof® IQ IOL is made from the same biocompatible lens material as the original AcrySof® lens
