16 Important Safety Information
Important Safety Information – TECNIS ® Multifocal IOL Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. (Rx only can be used in place of this text) Indications: TECNIS® Multifocal intraocular lenses are indicated for primary implantation for the visual correction of aphakia in adult patients with and without presbyopia in whom a cataractous lens has been removed by phacoemulsification and who desire near, intermediate, and distance vision with increased spectacle independence. The intraocular lenses are intended to be placed in the capsular bag. Warnings: Physicians considering lens implantation under any of the conditions described in the Directions for Use labeling should weigh the potential risk/benefit ratio prior to implanting a lens. Some visual effects associated with multifocal IOLs may be expected because of the superposition of focused and unfocused images. These may include a perception of halos/glare around lights under nighttime conditions. It is expected that, in a small percentage of patients, the observation of such phenomena will be annoying and may be perceived as a hindrance, particularly in low illumination conditions. On rare occasions these visual effects may be significant enough that the patient will request removal of the multifocal IOL. Under low-contrast conditions, contrast sensitivity is reduced with a multifocal lens compared to a monofocal lens. Therefore, patients with multifocal lenses should exercise caution when driving at night or in poor visibility conditions. Patients with a predicted postoperative astigmatism >1.0D may not be suitable candidates for multifocal IOL implantation since they may not fully benefit from a multifocal IOL in terms of potential spectacle independence. 16

17 Important Safety Information
Important Safety Information – TECNIS ® Multifocal IOL Precautions: The central one millimeter area of the lens creates a far image focus, therefore patients with abnormally small pupils (~1 mm) should achieve, at a minimum, the prescribed distance vision under photopic conditions; however, because this multifocal design has not been tested in patients with abnormally small pupils, it is unclear whether such patients will derive any near vision benefit. Autorefractors may not provide optimal postoperative refraction of multifocal patients; manual refraction is strongly recommended. In contact lens wearers, surgeons should establish corneal stability without contact lenses prior to determining IOL power. Care should be taken when performing wavefront measurements as two different wavefronts are produced (one will be in focus (either far or near) and the other wavefront will be out of focus); therefore incorrect interpretation of the wavefront measurements is possible. The long-term effects of intraocular lens implantation have not been determined; therefore implant patients should be monitored postoperatively on a regular basis. Secondary glaucoma has been reported occasionally in patients with controlled glaucoma who received lens implants. The intraocular pressure of implant patients with glaucoma should be carefully monitored postoperatively. Do not resterilize or autoclave. Use only sterile irrigating solutions such as balanced salt solution or sterile normal saline. Do not store in direct sunlight or over 45C. Emmetropia should be targeted as this lens is designed for optimum visual performance when emmetropia is achieved. Care should be taken to achieve centration. Adverse Events: The most frequently reported adverse event that occurred during the clinical trial of the Tecnis® Multifocal lens was macular edema, which occurred at a rate of 2.6%. Other reported reactions occurring in 0.3 – 1.2% of patients were hypopyon, endophthalmitis, and secondary surgical intervention (including biometry error, retinal repair, iris prolapse/wound repair, trabeculectomy, lens repositioning, and patient dissatisfaction). Attention: Reference the Directions for Use for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions. 17

18 Optical Synergy

19 Multiple Factors Affect Patient Outcomes
Multiple lens design and material attributes affect quality of vision, including: Spherical aberration correction Chromatic aberration correction Material clarity Light transmission For multifocal lenses, pupil-independence also needs to be considered While each lens attribute provides an individual benefit, the total benefit of these combined attributes can create a significant visual improvement 19 19

20 Advantage: Correcting Spherical Aberration to Zero

21 The Average Cornea Eye (ACE) Model
The average cornea eye (ACE) model was developed by collecting topography measurements from a significant sampling of cataract patients* This study concluded that the average amount of corneal spherical aberration is microns throughout life Multiple studies with over 500 patients combined confirm this data 21 *Holladay JT, et al. J Refract Surg. 2002;18:

23 Patented Wavefront-Designed Optic
Tecnis Multifocal IOL Physician Presentation Patented Wavefront-Designed Optic The TECNIS® Multifocal aspheric surface was designed using the ACE model Provides microns of spherical aberration to correct residual spherical aberration to essentially zero* 23 *Data on file. Abbott Medical Optics Inc. 23

24 Why Target Zero Spherical Aberration?
SA (<25 years) mean (SD 0.052) SA (>25 years) mean (SD 0.038) Peak visual performance occurs around age 19-25 At this time, the average spherical aberration of the eye is zero Spherical aberration increases with age Spherical aberration of young subjects (<25) with visual acuity better than 20/15 have zero spherical aberration on average 24 *Artal P, et al. Presented at ESCRS 2006.

25 Spherical Aberration Correction
Correcting spherical aberration (SA) to zero results in sharper focus of light and therefore sharper vision at both near and distance. * * TECNIS® Multifocal IOL ReSTOR® +3.0 IOL 25 *In the average cataract patient

26 Spherical Aberration Correction
There is a measurable difference An IOL that fully corrects spherical aberration can provide a 13% increase in contrast over an IOL that leaves +0.1 residual spherical aberration* MTF measurements based on ACE cornea model, which is derived from wavefront measurements of actual cataract patients and validated by numerous studies. 26 *Zhao H, et al. Presented at ESCRS Theoretical analysis.

27 Advantage: Correcting Chromatic Aberration

28 Chromatic Aberration Correction
What is chromatic aberration? Occurs when light is separated into its spectral components These wavelengths refract differently, creating multiple focal points 28

29 Chromatic Aberration Correction
Factors affecting chromatic aberration correction: Optic Material The chromatic aberration of optical materials can be expressed by their Abbe numbers The higher the number, the greater chromatic aberration reduction, especially for distance vision Optic Design A diffractive surface and a high add power correct for lens-induced chromatic aberration at the near focus 29

30 Chromatic Aberration Correction
TECNIS® Multifocal IOL material provides better chromatic aberration correction due to three factors: Diffractive surface corrects chromatic aberration at near focus for all pupil sizes +4.0 D add power corrects ocular chromatic aberration at near focus better than a +3.0 D add power Material has a higher Abbe number and therefore less chromatic aberration at the distance focus* TECNIS® Multifocal IOL ReSTOR® +3.0 IOL 30 *Zhao H. Mainster M. Br J Ophthalmol

31 Chromatic Aberration Correction
AMO® hydrophobic acrylic has the highest Abbe number of IOLs tested* This can mean up to a 12% increase in contrast compared to the AcrySof material** Comparison of Abbe Numbers* *Zhao H. Mainster M. J Cataract Refract Surg. 2007 **Zhao H, et al. Presented at ESCRS 31

32 Combining Spherical and Chromatic Aberration Correction
Several studies have shown the correction of chromatic aberration and spherical aberration together is more beneficial than the sum of the two individual corrections. Yoon GY, Williams DR. J Opt Soc Am A Opt Image Sci Vis. 2002;19: Manzanera S, et al. Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2007;48:E-Abstract 1513. Zhao H, et al. Presented at ESCRS 32

33 Advantage: Material Clarity

34 Lathing vs. Injection Molding
TECNIS® Multifocal IOL is manufactured using a proprietary diamond cryolathing process The advantage of cryolathing over injection molded IOLs: Ensures refractive consistency of the material Limits microvoid formation from high temperature fluctuations, which have been shown to cause glistenings* 34 *Miyata A, et al. J Cataract Refract Surg

35 Incidence of Glistenings
Glistenings can cause A loss in contrast sensitivity Eyes without glistenings were found to have a 40% increase in contrast sensitivity at high spatial frequencies* Decreased visual acuity A study has shown that eyes with higher grades of glistenings had a small but significantly greater decrease in visual acuity than those with lesser grades** Glistenings present in an AcrySof® ReSTOR® lens *Gunenc U, et al. J Cataract Refract Surg **Christiansen G, et al. J Cataract Refract Surg 35

36 Advantage: Blue Light Transmission

37 Transmission of Blue Light
Blue light is proven to be essential for optimal scotopic vision* Blue light provides 35% of scotopic sensitivity* 37 *Mainster MA. Br J Ophthalmol

38 Why Scotopic Sensitivity is Important
Scotopic visual sensitivity decreases twice as fast with aging than photopic sensitivity* Scotopic sensitivity decreased at a rate of 0.08 log units per decade vs log units for photopic sensitivity Scotopic vision declines with age, even in healthy eyes with no cataract or retinal problems** …so why reduce scotopic sensitivity further? *Jackson GR, Owsley C. Vision Res **Mainster MA. Br J Ophthalmol 38

39 Better Scotopic Vision with Blue Light Transmission
AMO® hydrophobic acrylic lenses provide up to 21% more scotopic sensitivity compared to blue-blocking IOLs* Scotopic Sensitivity Reduction 39 *Mainster MA. Br J Ophthalmol

40 Why Were Blue-Blocking IOLs Developed?
Interest in blocking blue-light is motivated by the unproven hypothesis that phototoxicity from environmental light exposure can cause AMD* 10 of 12 major epidemiological studies show no correlation between AMD and lifelong light exposure 40 Mainster MA. Presented at ASCRS

41 The AREDs Study Results
Study results show NO effect of cataract surgery on the risk of advanced AMD progression The significance of this study and the difference in these findings compared to earlier studies that reported an association can be attributed to: Large number of participants with over 4,500 people Follow-up length of 10 years on average Inclusion of more people at a greater risk for AMD than population-based studies 41 Chew EY. Ophthalmology

42 What We Didn’t Know The first blue-light blocking IOLs were designed prior to the discovery of the role of blue light sensitive retinal ganglion photoreceptors and their relation to melatonin suppression* The release and suppression of melatonin affects sleep patterns, mood, memory, and systemic health Cataract surgery with a UV-blocking IOL that transmits blue light has been shown to decrease insomnia and daytime sleepiness** *Thapan K. J Physiol **Asplund. Arch Gerontol Geriatr and 2004. 42

43 Advantage: Pupil Independence With a Full Diffractive Surface

44 Full Diffractive Surface = Pupil Independence
MTF (50c/mm) for far MTF (50c/mm) for near MTF measurements based on ACE cornea model, which is derived from wavefront measurements of actual cataract patients and validated by numerous studies. 44 Data on file. Abbott Medical Optics Inc.

45 TECNIS® Multifocal IOL
Full Diffractive vs. Apodized Diffractive Effect in Bright Light Conditions In photopic conditions, light is distributed equally to near and distance focal points Light already begins to shift to distance at under 2mm pupil size with the apodized design TECNIS® Multifocal IOL ReSTOR® +3.0 IOL 45 Alfonso JF, JCRS. 2009

46 TECNIS® Multifocal IOL
Full Diffractive vs. Apodized Diffractive Effect in Low Light Conditions As the pupil widens in mesopic conditions: TECNIS® Multifocal IOL is pupil-independent so light is still distributed equally to near and distance focal points, retaining high-quality near vision The apodized design functions as a monofocal lens on the outer perimeter, therefore distributing more light to distance and degrading the quality of near vision TECNIS® Multifocal IOL ReSTOR® +3.0 IOL 46

47 Light Scatter Having a posterior diffractive surface reduces the amount of internal reflections more than an anterior diffractive surface A lower refractive index reduces reflections TECNIS® Multifocal IOL: 1.46 RI ReSTOR® 3.0 IOL: 1.55 RI 47

62 Important Safety Information
Important Safety Information – DK7786 Handpiece with the One Series Ultra Cartridge Implantation System Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. Indications: The DK7786 handpiece with the One Series Ultra cartridge implantation system is used to fold and assist in inserting TECNIS® 1-Piece intraocular lenses (IOL), ONLY into the capsular bag. Warnings: The DK7786 handpiece with the One Series Ultra cartridge implantation system should only be used with TECNIS® 1-Piece IOLs. Do not use if the cartridge tip is cracked or split prior to implantation. Never release the plunger until the optic body has been completely released from the cartridge tube. The lens and cartridge should be discarded if the lens has been folded within the cartridge for more than 5 minutes. If the IOL is not properly placed in the cartridge, the IOL may be damaged and/or implanted upside down. Do not attempt to modify or alter this device or any of the components, as this can significantly affect the function and/or structural integrity of the design. Use of methyl cellulose viscoelastics is not recommended as they have not been validated with this implantation system. Do not implant lens if rod tip becomes jammed in the cartridge.   Precautions: The use of viscoelastics is required when loading the IOL into the cartridge. For optimal performance use the AMO Healon® family of viscoelastics. Do not use balanced salt solution. The combination of low operating room temperatures and high IOL diopter powers may require a slower delivery. Do not use if any component of this implantation system has been dropped or inadvertently struck while outside of the shipping case. Do not store the cartridges at temperatures under 5°C or over 30°C.   Contraindications: Do not use the handpiece if the rod tip appears nicked or damaged in any way.
