The First And Only Extended Depth of Focus IOL Don't wait to leave a legacy of seamless brilliance. Start now with TECNIS Symfony® and TECNIS Symfony® Toric Extended Depth of Focus IOLs. *TECNIS Symƒony® Toric IOLs only LEGACY OF SEAMLESS Start with ME. BRILLIANCE. LEAVE A TECNIS Symfony® and TECNIS Symfony® Toric IOLs deliver state-of-the-art presbyopia mitigation and astigmatism correction* while providing a full range of high-quality, continuous vision. I've never let anything keep me from seeing the big picture. Why would you?

The lens mitigates the effects of presbyopia by providing an extended depth of focus. Compared to an aspheric monofocal IOL, the lens provides improved intermediate and near visual acuity, while maintaining comparable distance visual acuity. The model ZXR00 IOL is intended for capsular bag placement only. The TECNIS Symƒony® Toric Extended Range of Vision IOLs, models ZXT150, ZXT225, ZXT300, and ZXT375, are indicated for primary implantation for the visual correction of aphakia and for reduction of residual refractive astigmatism in adult patients with greater than or equal to 1 diopter of preoperative corneal astigmatism, in whom a cataractous lens has been removed. The lens mitigates the effects of presbyopia by providing an extended depth of focus. Compared to an aspheric monofocal IOL, the lens provides improved intermediate and near visual acuity, while maintaining comparable distance visual acuity. The model series ZXT IOLs are intended for capsular bag placement only. WARNINGS: May cause a reduction in contrast sensitivity under certain conditions, compared to an aspheric monofocal IOL. Inform patients to exercise special caution when driving at night or in poor visibility conditions. Some visual effects may be expected due to the lens design, including: perception of halos, glare, or starbursts around lights under nighttime conditions. These will be bothersome or very bothersome in some people, particularly in low-illumination conditions, and on rare occasions, may be significant enough that the patient may request removal of the IOL. Rotation of the TECNIS Symƒony® Toric IOLs away from their intended axis can reduce their astigmatic correction, and misalignment greater than 30° may increase postoperative refractive cylinder. If necessary, lens repositioning should occur as early as possible prior to lens encapsulation.
