Hi there!

Do you recommend Artiflex lenses (artiflex piol) for people who are
very nearsighted? (about -8 dioptre on both eyes and nearly zero
astigmatism)?

Why?

Or why not?

recommend to ask this question here.

Hi,

There are a number of benefits with it -

- No sutures

- Small incision (3.2 mm)

- Anti glare edge design

- One size fits all

- Reversibility of fixation.
Easy to reposition and easy to exchange

- Optimal lens distance to crystalline lens

- Optimal lens distance to corneal endothelium cells

- High power predictability (consult study results)

- Permanent lens fixation

- Excellent lens centration

- Integrity of vascular supply maintained

- Pupil Dilation not inhibited

- Maximal visibility of ARTIFLEX? PIOL
