Elon is an extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) that uses cutting-edge wavefront linking technology.
Manufactured by Medicontur Medical Engineering (Zsámbék, Hungary), this hydrophobic acrylic lens enhances distance and intermediate vision while minimising dysphotopsia and other light-related disturbances.1
Elon is available in toric and non-toric models. The lens is manufactured using a high-quality hydrophobic material with a high Abbe number of 58.0 for low chromatic aberrations (less loss of contrast due to dispersion of light). The lens comes in an easy-to-use preloaded injector. Studies have revealed excellent results with Elon IOLs, in terms of visual acuity, refractive stability, and patient satisfaction.2 Its ability to provide good vision at multiple distances with minimal side effects makes it a valuable option.2
