At Alcon, our vision care medical device products, such as PRECISION1® One-Day Contact Lenses, are designed, manufactured and marketed with a body of science developed through rigorous bench research and clinical studies.

Artificial tears aim to replicate the natural tears’ composition and physical properties.

Schlemm’s canal physiology is altered in the glaucoma disease state, with most of the resistance downstream of the TM

Multifocality in IOLs is achieved through refractive or diffractive optical approaches

Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) can cause devastating damage to the eye and permanent vision loss

Today’s SS-OCT biometers employ two methods to measure the axial length: Sum-of Segments using individual refractive indices or a Mean Group Refractive Index.
