Abstract

This paper describes a revolutionary new design for our intraocular lens which possesses two primary focal points and an increased depth of field, thereby providing the implant patient with both distance and near vision. The design incorporates both refractive and diffractive functionalities, with the latter being responsible for providing enhanced near vision for the implanted patient.
