Intraocular lens is a lens implanted in the eye as part of a treatment for cataracts or myopia. If the natural lens is left in the eye, the IOL is known as phakic, otherwise it is a pseudophakic, or false lens.
In the year 2002 Asilomed introduced its hydrophilic acrylic IOL and in 2007 its Hydrophobic acrylic IOL, Aurovue. Today this division manufactures wide variety of IOLs including premium, new technology IOLs. Asilomed Lenses are exported to over 120 countries worldwide.
Along with is IOL manufacturing expertise, Asilomed also developed its designing capabilities. A refection of this capability was evident with the successful launch of 360 degree square edge design in PMMA lenses first and subsequently in hydrophilic and hydrophobic foldable IOLs, Negative aspheric design in foldable IOLs, modified CTRs and Keratoprosthesis.
