Efficacy and Safety of Next-Generation IOL in Cataract Surgery
A multicentre, randomised, double-masked study evaluating visual outcomes and patient satisfaction.
To evaluate the visual performance and safety of the next-generation intraocular lens over 12 months.
Randomised, double-masked trial across 12 sites. Patients assessed pre-operatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months post-surgery.
Significantly improved visual outcomes with a favourable safety profile through 12 months.
Supports the use of this IOL to deliver consistently high-quality vision and patient satisfaction in routine cataract surgery.
Glaucoma Trial
IoES is home to the first phase 3 glaucoma trial ever performed in Ireland. IoES is among the first clinics in Europe to utilise a dropless glaucoma technology (treating glaucoma without using lifelong daily eye drops) that is fully licensed in the United States but currently available only on trial in Europe.

27g Surgery
Incisions to access the inside of the eye is measured in gauges. 27 gauge surgery is the smallest access surgery available; smaller incision results in a more controlled surgery and a more comfortable eye after surgery. IoES was the only surgical centre in Ireland utilising this technology 3 years ahead of other eye clinics.
