About new RayOne
Lens and injector designed as one to create the smallest fully preloaded IOL incision
Rayner developed their new MICS lens and fully preloaded IOL injection system with patented Lock & Roll technology as part of the same design process. This combination has resulted in the smallest fully preloaded injector nozzle available.
Lock & Roll technology rolls the lens to under half its size in one simple action, allowing the lens to pass smoothly though the fully enclosed cartridge, without the need for lens handling. This minimises insertion force and enables a consistently smoother delivery.
Enhanced 6.0 mm optic, retaining proven stability and optical performance of existing platform
The new RayOneMICS lens is an enhanced version of the tried-and-tested C-flex and Superflex platforms, combined into a single 6.0 mm optic design. The material and design benefits of the original lenses have been retained, without compromising on proven stability or optical performance. This new RayOne platform will be the base for the next generation of Rayner IOLs.
What does this all mean for our surgeons?
RayOne offers an injector which delivers the IOL consistently, with expert control, through a micro incision with minimal wound stretch, including patented Lock & Roll technology for the smallest fully preloaded IOL incision.
Rayner Vice President, International, Cary Dawes said: ‘India has always been an important market for Rayner, and as the market continues to move away from PMMA lenses, the opportunities continue to grow for us as we launch new technologies and IOL systems. Surgicon has been Rayner’s exclusive distributor in India for over 20 years in a very competitive market. MD Rajesh Dave and his team represent the quality and value that comes with the Rayner brand, and the strength of their relationships with surgeons gives me every reason to believe that we will see a successful launch and product lifecycle of RayOne in this key export market. I am sure ophthalmic surgeons will welcome the technologically superior RayOne.’
