Trifocal Lens Technology
Date Posted:
Wednesday, July 29, 2020 OSC professor, Jim Schwiegerling, has designed innovative implantable lenses for the eye that are trifocal, allow for distance, mid-range and near vision. Tech Launch Arizona assisted with the filing of the patent and helped Schwiegerling's group partner with Alcon, a global medical device company. The device is now in use by over half a million patients, including Schwiegerling himself. Read more about the project.
