Synchrony IOL Gives Almost 3D of Accomodation
March 1, 2010
In a new study, the Synchrony IOL performed just as well as Restor but without the disabling glare issue. Researchers detected almost 3D of accomodation- that’s pretty good. We’ll see when more surgeons implant these things how it really performs. I remain a little skeptical- hard to believe that the ciliary body can squeeze so much accommodation after so many years of atrophy.
