Bausch + Lomb to Present New Scientific Data on its Surgical Products and Pipeline at ESCRS

Bausch + Lomb announced 13 podium and poster presentations during the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ESCRS) annual meeting, which will take place in Vienna Sept. 8-12, 2023.

The presentations will include:

• A 3-year analysis of the superonasal minimally invasive micro sclerostomy (MIMS) surgical treatment for open angle glaucoma*
• Interim results of surgical procedures that used MINT (Minimally Invasive Nasal Trabeculostomy) in open angle glaucoma patients
• An evaluation of visual outcomes in patients with complex corneas who were implanted with the IC-8 Apthera IOL
• Clinical outcomes of the LuxSmart toric IOL
• Safety and performance results of the enVista ENVY, an investigational premium IOL
• Refractive outcomes of a low 0.90 diameter cylinder for the investigational enVista Toric IOL

Bausch + Lomb will also host several educational and networking events during the meeting. Educational events will include a MIMS masterclass and a panel of distinguished physicians who will provide insights from their firsthand clinical experience using the company’s newly launched SeeLuma Fully Digital Surgical Visualization Platform. Other presentations featuring the company’s latest surgical technology will take place in the Bausch + Lomb booth, and Bausch + Lomb will host a Lift Off Celebration event to mark its 170th anniversary.
