About company
Over 20 million people worldwide undergo cataract surgery each year. The surgery involves removing the eye’s cloudy natural lens and replacing it with an implanted artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Today’s implanted monofocal IOLs typically provide clear distance vision only, making it difficult to focus on near (close) objects. As a result, even after undergoing surgery, some people require glasses for sharp near and intermediate vision. Delivering true accommodative vision – the ability to change focus and see up close up, far away, and everything in between without glasses – continues to be the ultimate goal. VisiDome is developing an accommodative IOL that offers clear, spectacle-free vision at all distances. The company’s innovative approach is its simple and effective design that efficiently exploits the eyes’ natural accommodating mechanism and overcomes existing flaws of premium lenses.
