Recently,The First Batch in China, the First Case in LiaoningTECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL with Extended Depth of Focus and Astigmatism CorrectionImplant surgery inShenyang Aier Excellence Eye HospitalSuccessfully Launched, the surgery was performed by Dr. [Name], the Chief Executive of Aier Eye Hospital Group in Liaoning Province and the President of Shenyang Aier Excellence Eye Hospital.Professor Zhang Jinsong performed the surgery.Successfully performed cataract surgery on a child with congenital cataracts.
TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL fromJohnson & Johnson Vision,YesThe World's FirstExtended Depth of Focus Toric Intraocular Lens, used for correcting corneal astigmatism in cataract patients with astigmatism, while delivering high-qualityContinuous Vision Without Scattering。As early as January 2022, the product launched clinical research at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University.Officially received registration approval from the National Medical Products Administration in October 2023, Entering the Chinese market.

The patient is 9 years old and was previously diagnosed with congenital cataract in the left eye. The doctor informed that surgical treatment is required. To be cautious, the child's parents inquired extensively and learned that President Zhang Jinsong has made significant achievements in the diagnosis and treatment of difficult eye diseases. They then brought the child to Shenyang Aier Excellence Ophthalmology Hospital, deciding to undergo surgery.Upon examination, the patientThe left eye was diagnosed with congenital cataract., with a vision of only 0.3, opacity below the posterior capsule of the lens has already blocked the pupil area, and there is no significant improvement in vision with corrective glasses due to cataract effects,Possible Amblyopia, so President Zhang JinsongIt is recommended that the patient undergo cataract surgery as soon as possible.。# Surgical Plan Formulation and Execution"Congenital cataract is a blinding eye disease, with an incidence rate of about 4%." Dean Zhang Jinsong pointed out that congenital cataracts affect the entry of external light into the eye, failing to stimulate the development of vision and visual function. This not only leads to low vision in children but also easily causes visual function damage, as well as problems like amblyopia and strabismus, and in severe cases, blindness. Therefore,Early treatment is very important.。The child patient has unilateral cataract combined with 275-degree regular corneal astigmatism. After comprehensively considering multiple factors such as age, visual function, eye use requirements, and ocular conditions,President Zhang Jinsong "customized" it for him based on his eye measurements.Johnson & Johnson Vision TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL Implantation SurgeryandPostoperative Visual Perception Comprehensive Training, restoring better vision and visual function, which is a more suitable and scientifically advanced comprehensive treatment solution for cataracts.Mentioning this surgery, Professor Zhang Jinsong stated: The TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL, based on the classic TECNIS™ platform, features a white-piece design with no glistenings. Its posterior surface full-optical diffractive design is pupil-independent, maintaining performance when transitioning from bright to dark environments.Less loss of contrast sensitivity, better performance in dark vision。# TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL▲Originated fromOfficial WebsiteJohnson & Johnson VisionThe World's FirstTECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL with Extended Depth of Focus and Astigmatism CorrectionIs aFunctional intraocular lenses for refractive cataract surgery innovatively developed based on the TECNIS™ platform and the new STEP™ platform.Specifically forPatients with Cataracts and AstigmatismDesign.▲Originated fromOfficial WebsiteThe ProductAdopting the patented "Echelette Diffraction Grating" technology, provideContinuous Vision Without Scattering; patented“Achromatic Active Achromatism Technology”, Active Correction of Chromatic Aberration, providing high-quality contrast sensitivity; and featuring excellent stability, including long-term, refractive, and rotational stability, allowing cataract patients with astigmatism to correct corneal astigmatism while achieving all-day, continuous, and seamless vision from far to intermediate and near distances.# Product Market ProspectsCataracts are currently the leading cause of blindness globally. At present, the incidence rate of cataracts in China's population aged 60 to 89 is about 80%, and it is gradually showing a trend of becoming more prevalent among younger individuals.Surgery Still the Only Scientific Treatment for Cataracts。In recent years, with the changes in people's lifestyles, an increasing number of cataract patients have higher demands for uncorrected visual acuity after surgery, transitioning traditional cataract vision restoration surgery into refractive surgery.The implantation of multifocal and extended depth-of-focus intraocular lenses has also become a common refractive cataract surgery method.。Due to the specificity of multifocal intraocular lens design, factors such as patient selection, preoperative preparation, the surgeon's operation, postoperative individual differences, and adverse reactions all become important elements influencing the surgical outcome. Additionally, preoperative corneal astigmatism significantly undermines the effectiveness of intraocular lens implantation. Generally, corneal astigmatism above 0.75D needs to be corrected; therefore,Using extended depth-of-field toric intraocular lenses to increase the range of vision is more consistent with the physiological state of the human eye.。TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOLUnique inclusiveness, such as tolerance for postoperative residual astigmatism, large Kappa angle, refractive errors, and advanced age, canBetter balance of visual quality and full-range vision, ensuring patients have a better comfort experience and fewer postoperative adverse reactions.TECNIS Symfony™ Toric IOL AsGlobal and China's FirstIntraocular Lens with Extended Depth of Focus and Astigmatism Correction Technology, since its listing,More than hundreds of thousands of patients have benefited in China.`, filling a gap in China`Extended Depth of FieldThe Toric IOL fills a gap, allowing cataract patients with astigmatism to correct corneal astigmatism while achieving continuous, uninterrupted vision from far to intermediate distances, high-quality image contrast, and excellent stability.
