CloseSEMTE – An exceptional innovative hydrophobic material
- A co-polymer with reduced tackiness compared to other hydrophobic materials
- Improved mechanical properties at room temperature by a lower glass transition temperature (Tg)
- Excellent pseudo-plasticity for quick centration and positioning of the injected lens
- Very low rate of cell adhesion for highest possible PCO prevention
Read2.2mm Mini-Incision
- Unique pseudo-plasticity and remarkable mechanical properties close to that of hydrophilic materials
- A special geometry of the closed-loop design with excellent compressibility facilitates the injection through mini-incision
- MEDJET MA Injection Kit as the suitable hydraulic injection system
Read180° Contact angle between the loops and capsule
The specific Bi-Flex closed-loop haptic design offers
- Adequate resistance to a shrinking capsular bag
- Haptics that do not overlap
- Excellent axial / torsional stability
- Optimal filling up of the capsular bag
- Unmatched centration and radial stability
ReadNeutral asphericity approach
- Eliminating the pre-existing spherical aberration of the crystalline lens
- Preserving some depth of field by leaving the physiological corneal aberration untouched
- Compensating the physiological ocular asymmetries (KAPPA angle)
Read360° Sharp edge that deserves the name
The Bi-Flex design: a perfect square edge around the whole outline of the implant (r<10μ).
Read“Natural” yellow filter
Filtering as much as necessary – preserving as much as possible.
For a balanced protection of the macula against UV-A and blue light by an absorption curve close to that of the human crystalline lens, preserving the natural colour perception and contrast sensitivity.
ReadA hydrophobic implant without compromise
All you can expect from a hydrophobic IOL:
Comfortably injectable through a 2.2mm mini-incision
180° contact angle between the haptic and the capsular equator
Highest standards in terms of design:
- Overall diameter of 13 mm with a 6 mm optic
- Aspheric optical design
- 360° Square edge
“Natural Yellow” filter option
Providing adequate resistance against capsular bag retraction
Available in a wide power range (-10D to +45D)
„A hydrophobic IOL that combines the advantages of hydrophobic acrylic with the advantages of hydrophilic acrylic? I was quite sceptic. But there is no doubt: the Medicontur Bi-Flex HB seems to present a blend of the best pseudo-plasticity properties that you could expect. Further studies have yet to prove the long-term safety – but what we have seen so far is very promising.”
Dr Claude Raynaud • France
„What surprised me most with the new Medicontur Bi-Flex HB was the unseen clarity of the optic. Already during combined phaco vitreoretinal surgery you can see the obvious acuity and high resolution offered by this new hydrophobic lens. Post-op examinations confirmed the first impression: this lens stands for excellent visual acuity and contrast sensitivity.”
Dr Gabor Scharioth • Germany
„The SEMTE material looks like a revolution in the world of hydrophobic IOLs. You believe it when you see it: this new IOL slides into the capsular bag completely atraumatically with a perfect unfolding and centration time. Taking into account the known properties of the Bi-Flex design we have to realize that this new Medicontur hydrophobic lens represents a whole new category.”
