The IOL-Vip system has been developed to provide patients with macular disease an improvement of their central vision. In this exciting new procedure, two small lenses are inserted into the eye. Together, these lenses act like a telescope, slightly magnifying the image and diverting it to a healthier part of the retina. This healthy retina takes over the role of the macula and can give the AMD patient significantly improved vision.

The procedure takes about 30 minutes

There is no need for overnight stay in hospital

The potential improvement in vision can be tested using a special simulator. The simulator demonstrates the effect of the IOL-Vip system so patients can experience the possible improvement before the operation. Patients are helped to learn to use the new image with the help of some simple exercises.

The IOL-Vip system can help patients with "dry" and established "wet" forms of AMD and also patients with other forms of macular disease including macular holes, myopic degeneration, and hereditary retinal diseases e.g. Stargardt's, Best's.
