EyeKon’s "Natural Tinted Lens"™ merges the same UV-A blocking and violet-blue light filtering chromophore
that blocks UV-A light and filters violet-blue light in the same way as a young human crystalline lens.
The "Natural Tinted Lens"™ is a fully-bound chromophore that is identical to that found in
3-HydroxyKnurenine-glucoside, which is the primary UV-A blocker and violet-blue light filtering molecule in a
young human crystalline lens. EyeKon’s "Natural Tinted Lens"™ is superior to other yellow IOL material
because it protects the retina without blocking needed blue light, while providing complete natural protection
without losing contrast sensitivity or color perception.
Recent independent investigations have shown that
current blue blocking IOLs cause a loss in contrast sensitivity and color perception. There is nothing more
natural than using the same chromophore that nature intended when the natural lens must be replaced.
EyeKon’s "Natural Tinted Lens"™ is UV-A blocking plus violet-blue light filtering while maintaining high
contrast sensitivity and color perception. What could be more natural? |
