Rayner has redesigned its online premium intraocular lens (IOL) calculator, known as RayTrace.
One of the first online IOL calculation tools, the first RayTrace calculator was launched in 2008. Since then it has delivered over 360,000 calculations worldwide for toric, multifocal and supplementary IOLs.
According to Rayner, the newly-redesigned RayTrace version 4.0 reflects surgeon feedback with quicker and clearer calculations, access to the PEARL DGS formula, and a number of other new features:
- Ability to calculate both eyes on one page.
- Access To toric and non-toric results in one calculation.
- Improved theatre view design,
- The option to input post-operative refractive data,
- Improved integration with Rayner’s best-in-class PROMs platform, RayPRO.
Launching the “new and improved” RayTrace tool, Stanley Windsor, Head of Digital Health at Rayner, thanked key opinion leaders “who provided valuable feedback to inform the redesign” and said “the latest features will really improve usability for surgeons to ensure quick, clear calculations”.
