![]() ![]() The FDA issued approval to ReVision Optics, a company out of Lake Forest, CA, for its Raindrop Near Vision Inlay, a device designed to reshape the Cornea to Help people with presbyopia see nearby objects. The tiny hydrogel device is implanted in an outpatient procedure. It looks like a contact lens, but is only 2mm in width and 32 micrometers in thickness. A laser is used to create a flap within the Cornea and position the Raindrop under it. The new shape of the Cornea helps the eye adjust and focus, essentially doing something that a healthy*eye should be doing on its own. It was tested in a clinical trial of almost 400 people who received the implant, demonstrating that 92% of patients who were evaluated had 20/40 or better Vision at Near distances two years after the procedures. It’s intended for people 41 to 65 years old who have **t had cataract surgery, but who really don’t like wearing reading glasses.
