πŸ‘ Rayner has announced the upcoming launch of the RayOne Galaxy and Galaxy Toric, the world’s first spiral intraocular lenses (IOLs) designed using artificial intelligence. Set to debut at the 2024 ESCRS Congress in Barcelona, this innovative lens offers a continuous full range of vision with minimized dysphotopsia, thanks to a unique AI-designed spiral and non-diffractive optic with 0% light loss. The RayOne Galaxy will be available in toric powers and comes preloaded in a single-use injector system.

πŸ‘ Meanwhile, researchers at the University of East Anglia have introduced a 3D printing system for IOLs, enabling greater customization, complexity, and rapid prototyping in lens manufacturing. This technology allows for the creation of multiple, patient-specific lens designs on a single printer, potentially improving vision correction and comfort.
