Rayner, a global leader in products for cataract surgery, proudly announces the approval of RayOne EMV (RAO200E) by Health Canada1. Developed in collaboration with Professor Graham Barrett, RayOne EMV is the only patented aspheric IOL that induces controlled positive spherical aberration to slightly extend the depth of focus.
“I’ve been awaiting Health Canada approval of RayOne EMV since hearing about the great outcomes achieved by colleagues from around the world and am excited to begin offering it to my patients. RayOne EMV will be an important addition to our IOL armamentarium for patients desiring spectacle independence beyond a standard monofocal,” said Dr. Paul Sanghera, cofounder of Lumea and Clarity Eye Institute.
Since the launch of RayOne EMV in 2020, clinical data has consistently demonstrated that RayOne EMV provides high quality vision2. Unlike some IOLs which utilize diffraction to increase depth of focus, the carefully controlled positive spherical aberration induced by RayOne EMV spreads light along the visual axis. To date, over 335,000 RayOne EMVs have been successfully implanted worldwide, demonstrating its widespread popularity and success.
“Many patients are seeking opportunities to receive high quality vision without side effects, and I believe that RayOne EMV will offer a compelling solution for many of them,” reported Dr. Louis Racine of the Centre Hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal.
Rayner has a rich history of innovation and a commitment to improving the lives of cataract patients since manufacturing the world’s first intraocular lens (IOL) in 1949. The introduction of RayOne EMV in Canada underscores Rayner’s dedication to advancing ophthalmic care and providing Canadian patients with access to new technology.
