BAUSCH + LOMB LAUNCHES EYEGILITY INSERTER PRELOADED IOL DELIVERY SYSTEM IN THE UNITED STATES

Bausch + Lomb Corp. has launched the EyeGility inserter, a preloaded IOL (intraocular lenses) delivery system, in the United States.

"The enVista IOL platform has long been appreciated by surgeons for its glistening-free optic and differentiated optic portfolio to suit a wide range of patients," said Wayne Caulder, vice-president and general manager, North America surgical, Bausch + Lomb. "The launch of EyeGility enables surgeons to continue delivering these benefits to their patients while also gaining the efficiencies and advantages offered by this preloaded IOL delivery system."

Designed specifically for preloaded enVista Aspire IOLs and Envy IOLs, the EyeGility inserter offers convenient one-handed operation and balanced push force for smooth delivery, with a silicone soft-tipped plunger that supports reliable IOL delivery with injection through a 2.4-millimetre incision. The inserter provides improved comfort compared with previous Bausch + Lomb inserters, and the loading process allows for up to 20 minutes of standby time from prep to lens delivery.

"I frequently choose enVista IOLs for my patients, and, in my hands, the EyeGility inserter has consistently provided a smooth, comfortable IOL delivery," said Dr. Parag Parekh, MD, Clearview Eye Consultants, Reynoldsville, Penn.

The EyeGility Inserter is now available in the United States as part of the enVista Aspire preloaded IOLs. enVista Envy lenses preloaded into EyeGility inserters will be available in the coming months.
