OverviewSofPort® is a surgeon-friendly intraocular lens (IOL) designed to unfold gently and controllably within the eye.
- SofPort® AO is neutral to the induction of positive or negative spherical aberrations and does not induce significant high-order aberrations.
- The SofPort® AO optic is less sensitive to the effects of misalignment or decentration than non-AO lenses.
- Designed with a sharp 360° square posterior edge, a feature shown to reduce posterior capsule opacification (PCO) compared to round-edged IOLs.
