The Bi-Flex Platform

CloseThe Bi-Flex platform - The excellence!

In addition to an excellent toric correction, the Bi-Flex Toric Aspheric IOL benefits from the general advantages presented by the Bi-Flex platform:

  • 180° contact angle between the haptics and the capsular equator for a perfect centration and rotational/axial/torsional stability
  • Linear/progressive haptic resistance against the contraction forces to prevent decentration by an asymmetrically shrinking capsular bag
  • Unique, patented 360° square edge for reduced PC

ReadNeutral asphericity approach

  • Eliminating the pre-existing spherical aberration of the crystalline lens
  • Preserving some depth of field by leaving the physiological corneal aberration untouched

ReadA winning co-polymer

An optimum blend of hydrophobic and hydrophilic monomers having complementary properties as

  • Excellent pseudo-plasticity thanks to hydrophobic monomers
  • Superior pre-insertion folding capacity and a post-insertion unfolding with perfect recovery of the optical properties thanks to hydrophilic monomers
  • Both combined granting a low ionicity of the surface resulting in low rates of cell adhesion

Filtering as much as necessary – preserving as much as possible.

For a balanced protection of the macula against UV-A and blue light by an absorption curve close to that of the human crystalline lens, preserving the natural colour perception and contrast sensitivity.

To ensure the best outcome, you need a sound surgical plan.

Precise surgical planning has never been easier.

The Medicontur Toric Calculator is fast, easy, reliable – step-by-step input:

  • Keratometry in millimetres ensures indepence from Javal/Zeiss indices
  • Surgically induced corneal astigmatism on flat or steep axis
  • Incision location on flat or steep axis
  • Recommendation of IOL model with Spherical Equivalent and Cylindric Power
  • Schematic drawing indicating the position of IOL and incision
  • Patient & surgeon data documentation
  • Both eyes on one page
  • Print option

With the Medicontur calculator 1-page-print-out you receive a clear guide for the alignment of the toric IOL during surgery.

Precise and predictable astigmatism correction

Optimum centration and rotational/axial/torsional stability

Increased imaging quality by neutral asphericity

Preserving a minimum depth of field, even at high cylinder values

Minimal induced astigmatism by mini-incision

„This was the toric IOL we were waiting for: the most advanced design, coupled with a premium material has got a toric surface. Our results in cylindrical correction with Medicontur toric intraocular lenses are the best so far. I am looking forward to the extended cylindrical power range announced by Medicontur.”
Dr Filippo Simona • Switzerland

„The rotational stability is a key parameter for any toric IOL. In this regard the mechanical properties of the Bi-Flex design are outstanding; In particular the Medicontur closed loop haptics with a total of 180° of contact angle between the haptics and the capsular equator. The prevention of rotation is the necessary pre-condition, an absolute must for a precise and predictable astigmatism correction.”
Prof Dr Günther Grabner • Austria

„I really appreciate the Medicontur Toric Calculator, it is simple and safe: one page for both eyes, without unnecessary options and sources of error. No need to care about Javal or other indices, instead of using diopters you just stay in millimetre! Further I realized that for prevention of a post-op shift of axis it is essential to leave the incision - and consequently the calculated induced astigmatism - on the pre-existing steep or flat axis. Provided you complete a precise keratometry in the first place the Medicontur Toric Calculator will lead you to optimum cylindrical correction.”
