My first experiences with AT ELANA 841P and ARTEVO 850

This article by Liem Trinh, MD highlights his experiences with the AT ELANA® 841P hydrophobic trifocal IOL and the ARTEVO® 750 and ARTEVO® 850 microscopes from ZEISS. Dr. Trinh discusses the benefits of the trifocal design of the AT ELANA 841P IOL and its ability to provide spectacle independence at all distances after cataract surgery. He also shares his positive experiences with the ARTEVO 850 microscope, which offers improved surgical visualization with RGB LED illumination and 3D viewing on a high dynamic range monitor. Additionally, Dr. Trinh discusses the potential benefits of integrated intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the redesigned CALLISTO eye user interface.
