Interviewed this week for BBC - Symfony Lens

Those of you in the South East may have caught a TV interview I gave to BBC this week - discussing the benefits of the advanced new Symfony lens, introduced this summer at Optimax.

As I told BBC, the main benefit of this implantable lens technology is that it gives allows high-quality vision at all distances, which independence from spectacles.

The programme also interviewed one of my patients - Nicola Ellen, from Wingham, Kent, who was one of the first to be treated with the new lens, and who is delighted with her visual outcome.

On a more technical note, the new lens largely eradicates factors which can be present in traditional multifocal lenses - glare and poor colour contrast in certain lighting situations.
