Bausch + Lomb Corporation has introduced the preloaded enVista Envy full range of vision intraocular lens (IOL) in Europe. The lens offers excellent dysphotopsia tolerance on the enVista IOL platform, according to the company.

“Bausch + Lomb now offers two full range of vision premium IOLs—enVista Envy and LuxLife to meet the evolving needs of surgeons and patients in Europe,” said Luc Bonnefoy, president, Surgical, Bausch + Lomb. “Envy has performed exceptionally well in the U.S. and Canada, and we anticipate similar results with this launch.”

A multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial evaluating 332 subjects demonstrated excellent long-term outcomes with the enVista Envy IOL in the U.S.1 On average, 86.1 % of patients reported little to no bothersomeness for dysphotopsia (glare, halo, starbursts).1 In a Canadian clinical study evaluating 110 subjects, 95.4% of patients reported little to no difficulty viewing close objects, and 93 % were completely to moderately satisfied with their vision post-surgery.2

enVista Envy delivers outstanding performance in all lighting conditions thanks to ActivSync Optic intelligent energy distribution, which optimizes vision in many lighting conditions, Bausch + Lomb bigwigs claim. The Envy lens also enables surgeons to treat a wider range of astigmatic patients with more accuracy and precision with 0.50 D steps (or less) throughout the cylinder range and starting at an ultra-low correction with 0.90 D at IOL plane.

The EyeGility delivery system, designed specifically for preloaded enVista IOLs including Envy, offers balanced push force for smooth delivery, injection through a 2 mm incision, convenient one-handed operation, and an enlarged shuttle tab that enhances comfort for users compressing the IOL during ophthalmic viscosurgical device (OVD) application. EyeGility also features an enlarged viscoport that facilitates more accessible OVD application during preparation and up to 20 minutes of standby time from prep to lens delivery.3 enVista Envy is the first Bausch + Lomb IOL to use EyeGility.

“The enVista Envy performs extremely well in our experience and does so with minimal photic issues, if any,” stated Sheraz Daya, M.D., medical director at the Centre for Sight in London. “The combination of the EyeGility delivery system with the lens will make the whole process quick and easy for surgeons.”

For nearly two centuries Bausch + Lomb has evolved with the changing needs of patients and customers. From contact lenses to prescription products, over-the-counter options, surgical devices, and more, the company is striving to turn bold ideas into better outcomes through passion, perseverance, and purpose.
