OverviewAkreos® AO60 and MI60L are aspheric hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lenses developed for microincision cataract surgery, offering a range of powers and geometries to support precise centration and stability.
Key features- Optical design delivers quality of vision and contrast sensitivity according to published references
- High flexibility enables implantation through incisions as small as 1.8 mm
- Three overall lengths and a four‑point haptic configuration for predictable fit, centration and rotational stability
- Equi‑biconvex optic and low refractive index material to minimize reflected light
Technical dataModel | Recommended Starting A-Constant | Overall Diameter | Diopter Powers
