RayOne Hydrophobic BLF

RayOne Hydrophobic BLF 6 mm optic

Ultra glistening-free. Ultra smooth

Ultra glistening-free

• An independent in-vitro study against four leading hydrophobic IOLs found Rayner’s lens to be glistening-free and equivalent or superior to the other lenses¹.

Suitable for all patients

• Aberration-neutral technology for visual quality and acuity in all light conditions.

Designed to minimise PCO

• Thanks to our Amon-Apple 360˚ enhanced square edge and its natural bioadhesivity, our hydrophobic BLF lens is designed to minimise the risk of PCO.

Ultra smooth

• Our patented Lock & Roll system rolls the lens inside the injector for a single smooth movement into the eye, with minimal force needed.
• Once in the eye, our hydrophobic BLF lens unrolls smoothly at a natural speed for efficient surgery time.

Cornerstone technology

Ultra stable

Our patented Cornerstone lens design ensures the IOL is perfectly balanced as it travels down the injector nozzle. Once in the eye, Rayner’s anti-vaulting haptics lock against the unique Cornerstone tabs for superb stability.

During lens delivery

As hydrophobic lenses are made of a naturally stiffer material than their hydrophilic counterparts, they are typically more difficult to compress and fold inside the injector.

If the IOL is not folded symmetrically then it can exit the injector nozzle unpredictably – for example, in the undesired ‘S’ position. Our Cornerstone tabs balance the volume of material on both sides of the lens – resulting in: 1. Balanced weighting inside the injector 2. Controlled haptic orientation 3. Controlled speed of exit How it works: Our Lock & Roll system rolls the hydrophobic lens with improved symmetry, meaning that it travels down the injector nozzle in a more stable and predictable manner, with a controlled exit into a ‘Z’ orientation.

The difference with RayOne Hydrophobic

Glistenings are fluid-filled microvacuoles that form within the matrix of the lens when exposed to an aqueous environment¹. High levels of glistenings can create disturbances for patients, with the scattering of light impacting their contrast sensitivity and unnecessarily compromising their post-surgery satisfaction.

Independent comparative study

The images below are from an independent study conducted at the University Hospital Heidelberg in Germany. They show the results after glistening induction at 14 x magnification.

Following an established protocol, RayOne Hydrophobic was tested against four commercially available hydrophobic IOLs. The chart below shows the test results of five IOLs of each model which were subjected to an in-vitro aging procedure designed to simulate clinical conditions over time, and evaluate the resultant level of glistenings in each IOL material. A score below one on the clinical Miyata scale will not produce any significant visible glistenings on a slit lamp examination and is considered ‘glistening-free’.

RayOne Hydrophobic reached ‘significantly lower mean glistening numbers’ compared to the AcrySof IQ (Alcon) and Lucia (Zeiss) IOLs (P < 0.05).1 A score below one on the clinical Miyata scale will not produce any significant visible glistenings on a slit lamp examination and is considered ‘glistening-free’.

The independent study report concludes that RayOne Hydrophobic shows ‘high resistance to microvacuole formation’ and is equivalent or superior to the best hydrophobic IOLs currently available on the market.1

Designed for a better experience than current hydrophobic IOLs

RayOne Hydrophobic BLF 

Unwilling to accept the compromises inherent with many hydrophobic lenses, RayOne Hydrophobic is designed to provide patients with the visual outcomes they demand in a high performing preloaded system that supports surgeons in the operating room.

RayOne injector

For predictable and efficient delivery, every time.

In a comparative study of six market-leading preloaded delivery systems

1. RayOne received the maximum score for ‘ease of use’ for all delivery steps:

• Opening of pack
• OVD priming
• Advancing OVD in the nozzle
• Nozzle insertion into the wound
• IOL delivery

2. RayOne was the least time consuming system for delivering the IOL

3. RayOne showed less injector tip damage post-insertion than 50% of the tested delivery systems

4. RayOne showed minimal wound stretch compared to other tested delivery systems when through a 2.2 mm incision
