Key Takeaways Bausch + Lomb has launched the enVista Envy full range of vision intraocular lens in Europe Clinical studies show high patient satisfaction and strong tolerance to visual disturbances, with most patients reporting minimal glare, halos, or difficulty with near vision The lens combines advanced ActivSync Optic technology with the new EyeGility delivery system to improve visual performance and streamline surgical procedures Bausch + Lomb announced the European commercial availability of its preloaded enVista Envy full range of vision IOL, expanding its premium cataract surgery portfolio in the region. The enVista Envy IOL is designed to provide a full range of vision while maintaining strong tolerance to dysphotopsia—visual disturbances such as glare, halos, and starbursts—on the enVista platform. “With the addition of enVista Envy alongside LuxLife, we now offer two premium full range of vision IOLs to meet the evolving needs of surgeons and patients in Europe,” said Luc Bonnefoy, president of Surgical at Bausch + Lomb. “Envy has performed exceptionally well in the US and Canada, and we anticipate similar results with this launch.” Clinical data supporting the lens highlights its effectiveness and patient satisfaction. A multicenter, randomized, controlled U.S. trial involving 332 subjects demonstrated strong long-term outcomes, with 86.1% of patients reporting little to no bothersome dysphotopsia. In a separate Canadian study of 110 patients, results showed: 95.4% reported little to no difficulty seeing close objects 93% were completely to moderately satisfied with their post-surgical vision The enVista Envy IOL incorporates ActivSync Optic technology, which B+L says intelligently distributes light energy to optimize vision in varying lighting conditions. This enables patients to maintain high-quality vision throughout daily activities. Additionally, the lens offers enhanced astigmatism correction capabilities, allowing surgeons to treat a broader range of patients with improved precision. It features: Cylinder increments of 0.50 D or less An ultra-low starting correction of 0.90 D at the IOL plane The launch also introduces the EyeGility delivery system, designed specifically for preloaded enVista lenses. The system enables: Smooth, controlled lens delivery with balanced push force Injection through a 2 mm incision One-handed operation for improved surgical efficiency An enlarged shuttle tab for easier lens compression during preparation EyeGility also includes a larger viscoport for easier ophthalmic viscosurgical device (OVD) application and allows up to 20 minutes of standby time between preparation and implantation, according to B+L. The enVista Envy is the first Bausch + Lomb IOL to utilize this system.
