J&J Company Vision Group chairman Peter Menziuso said: “TECNIS Odyssey patients have reported outstanding visual outcomes following surgery, which is why we are excited to announce we are expanding the roll-out across the US today.
“Cataract surgery gives patients a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to improve their sight, and now with this advanced IOL, patients can see clearly at every distance, without the need for glasses.”
The TECNIS Odyssey IOL has not only been launched in the US but has also received approval from regulatory authorities in Japan, the European Union, Korea, Canada, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand.
Johnson & Johnson is also initiating the ‘TECNIS Odyssey IOL Peer Connect’ programme to encourage dialogue among healthcare professionals about the technology, leveraging insights from expert surgeons who have had early access to the lens.
In June this year, J&J concluded the acquisition of cardiovascular device developer Shockwave Medical in a deal valued at around $13.1bn.
