Johnson & Johnson to Present New Scientific Data on Acuvue Oasys Max 1-Day, Tecnis Odyssey, and a Purely Refractive Next Generation EDF IOL at ARVO

Johnson & Johnson will present new data on several of its latest innovations through 35+ posters and oral presentations at the 2025 Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) annual meeting, May 4-8.
New in-vitro methodology shows that Acuvue Oasys Max 1-Day (vs. competitor) maintained lubricity at end of day in dehydrating conditions
A new stress test compared contact lens material surface behavior under challenging conditions such as evaporative stress and dehydration (which may cause discomfort and compromise ocular surface health), and measured lower friction for Acuvue Oasys Max 1-Day than Dailies Total1.
- An evaporative stress tribological assay for insights into contact lens materials behavior under challenging conditions. Tosatti, Samuele et al. (Oral Presentation: May 8, 3:15 – 3:30PM MT)
- The characterization of silicone hydrogel materials using a Tribological Stress Test (TST). Mohammed, Chrysan. (Poster Presentation: May 7, 2:00 – 3:45PM MT)
New clinical data shows benefits of astigmatism correction for multifocal content lens wearers
This clinical study of 384 presbyopic patients wearing Acuvue Oasys Max 1-Day multifocal contact lens suggest that the benefit of correcting 0.75 diopter of astigmatism for wearers of multifocal contact lenses is less impactful than for those who wear spherical (non-multifocal) contact lenses.
- Visual performance of multifocal contact lens wearers with 0.75D of uncorrected astigmatism. Ross, Franklin et al. (Poster presentation: May 4, 8:00 – 9:45AM MT)
Tecnis Odyssey IOL shown to utilize light efficiently which impacts image quality and visual acuity in new study
This study evaluates methods for assessing light distribution of diffractive intraocular lenses. It evaluates which fraction of the incoming light energy truly contributes to the retinal image quality and its subsequent contribution to visual acuity. The research highlights modulation transfer function (MTF) area under the curve, compared with conventional methods for assessing light distribution, as a good metric for evaluating diffractive PC IOLs, such as the Tecnis Odyssey IOL.
- Light utilization of diffractive intraocular lenses. Henk, Weber. (Poster Presentation: May 8, 8:00 – 9:45AM MT)
Research on extended depth of focus PC-IOLs, including a purely refractive next generation of EDF IOL
Several studies on a purely refractive next generation of EDF IOL, including a new vision performance test to assess functional vision which can complement conventional threshold vision tests; image quality differences between EDF models; and research on postoperative refractive errors.
- Quick Vision Performance Test - A new method for analysing performance of Intraocular lenses. Romashchenko, Dmitry et al. (Poster presentation: May 4, 1:00 – 2:45PM MT)
- Optical bench evaluation of decentration effect on extended depth of focus (EDF) intraocular lenses. Alarcon, Aixa et al. (Poster presentation: May 5, 3:00 – 4:45PM MT)
- Difference between uncorrected distance visual acuity and defocus curve testing with trial lenses of myopic and hyperopic pseudophakic eyes. Papadatou, Eleni et al. (Poster presentation: May 4, 8:00 – 9:45AM MT)
- Effects of post-operative refractive errors in presbyopia correcting intraocular lenses in post-LASIK eyes. Jenkins, Mark et al. (Poster presentation: May 8, 8:00 – 9:45AM MT)
Real world evidence and research on myopia management including solutions like a soft contact lens with the RingBoost Technology
Data includes a 12-month real-world study report of safety and performance of a soft contact lens with the RingBoost Technology worn by Chinese children in Hainan, China. Additional research examines how to properly evaluate effectiveness of myopia control treatment considering limitations of using the centile growth and large variance in underlying eye growth in treated eyes.
- Real-world safety and performance of a novel soft contact lens for myopia management in Chinese children. Cheng, Xu et al. (Poster presentation: May 7, 2:00 – 3:45PM MT)
- The Limitations of Percentile Growth Curves for Myopia. Bullimore, Mark et al. (Poster presentation: May 7, 2:00 – 3:45PM MT)
- What percentage of individuals treated for myopia progression exhibit axial elongation greater than the mean of the control group? Brennan, Noel et al. (Poster presentation: May 7, 2:00 – 3:45PM MT)
Additionally, Johnson & Johnson will be sharing 5 company-sponsored presentations highlighting research in geographic atrophy, including real-world evidence, imaging biomarker analyses and physician preference data.
Additional poster and oral presentations from Johnson & Johnson at the ARVO 2025 Annual Meeting can be found through the event Online Meeting Planner.
