SAV-IOL Continues Progress on Electronic IOL Project

SAV-IOL (Swiss Advanced Vision) provided an update on its progress toward making the first active, electronic IOL through their R-TASC Project. SAV-IOL first launched the R-TASC Project idea in 2018. 

"Current IOLs on the market suffer from optical compromises, including limited visual accommodation range, loss of light, or photic phenomena. SAV-IOL strives to eliminate these problems with their R-TASC Project IOL," according to SAV-IOL. “The lens will be equipped with an autofocus system able to detect the distance of objects in its visual field. Mimicking the human lens, the autofocus system will send signals that trigger micro-pumps to alter the curvature of the optical membrane through liquid; the process transpiring at 0.2 seconds, a speed almost equivalent to that of a healthy human eye."
