The PanOptix Lens. What do we do when patients don't like it? Replacing a PanOptix with a Symfony.

(Disclosure: I have no financial interest in any of the products in this video)
The Panoptix lens is a presbyopia-correcting lens implant that successfully corrects vision at all distances - far, mid and near - enabling patients to see with minimal to no reliance on glasses.

It works well in 99+% of patients in our experience thus far. Since no lens implant is perfect and without side effects, there are patients who may not like the quality or quantity of vision with the Panoptix.

We present a case of lens exchange (IOL exchange) where we removed the panoptix lens and replaced it with a symfony lens. The patient did not like the vision with the Panoptix but was satisfied with the vision of the symfony lens. He preferred the optical quality of vision with the symfony lens more than the panoptix lens.
