The ReSTOR IOL was designed to provide quality near to distance vision by combining the strengths of apodized diffractive and refractive technologies. Similar technology has been used for years in microscopes and telescopes to improve image quality, and has now been patented for use in intraocular lenses.

Advantages of the ReSTOR IOL:

• Incredible range of vision - For most patients, the ReSTOR IOL delivers excellent near and distance vision, and good intermediate vision without reading glasses or bifocals. In fact, with this increase in vision quality, patients would be able to pass the visual acuity portion of the driver’s license exam in most states.
  
  
• The ability to read quickly and easily - In an independently conducted study, ReSTOR IOL patients were tested to see how easily they could read paragraphs of decreasing font size, and their results were compared to patients with other IOLs. While only one of 13 patients with other IOLs could read small type (such as the newspaper), four of five ReSTOR patients were still able to read small type quickly and easily.
  
  
• Better vision for various lighting situations - The ReSTOR IOL delivers quality vision for various lighting situations. In brightly lit conditions, the central apodized diffractive portion of the ReSTOR IOL sends light waves simultaneously to both near and distant focal points, while, in dimly lit conditions, the surrounding refractive area sends greater energy to distance vision.
