Alcon Europe surgical franchise vice-president Sunil Vasanth said: “Vivity is a first-of-its-kind, non-diffractive extended depth of focus IOL built with our proprietary X-WAVE technology, which stretches and shifts light without splitting it.

“Our real-world registry data gives surgeons the confidence that Vivity’s performance is sustained over time. This data is also important as it includes patients with common mild comorbidities like glaucoma, dry eye and retinopathy/maculopathy.”
