At ClearSight, we’re always focused on bringing patients the latest advancements in vision correction. The Bausch + Lomb enVista Envy lens is a new option for those undergoing cataract surgery or considering Custom Lens Replacement. Designed to offer clear vision across a range of distances, this lens is quickly becoming a preferred choice for patients who want more visual freedom after surgery. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at what makes the enVista Envy lens different. If you’re considering cataract surgery or Custom Lens Replacement, schedule a consultation with ClearSight to see if this lens is right for you.
What are the benefits of the Bausch & Lomb enVista Envy Lens for Cataract Surgery & Custom Lens Replacement?
The Bausch + Lomb enVista Envy lens offers several key benefits for patients undergoing cataract surgery or Custom Lens Replacement at ClearSight, though these five stand out. As a trifocal intraocular lens, it provides clear vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses during everyday tasks like reading, using a computer, or driving. Its ActivSync Optic technology helps optimize vision in different lighting conditions by distributing light intelligently—prioritizing distance vision in low light to reduce glare and improve contrast. Patients also experience fewer visual disturbances, with clinical data showing that most report little to no bothersome glare, halos, or starbursts after surgery. The lens is built with durable, glistening-free acrylic and incorporates ClearPath and TruSight technologies for better clarity, contrast, and resistance to scratches. For those with astigmatism, the enVista Envy is available in a toric version that allows for precise correction in 0.5 diopter increments. Clinical studies in the U.S. and Canada have shown strong outcomes and high patient satisfaction, with many achieving excellent vision across all ranges without corrective lenses.
What is the Bausch & Lomb enVista Envy lens and what makes it different from other IOLs?
The Bausch + Lomb enVista Envy lens is a premium trifocal intraocular lens designed for patients undergoing cataract surgery or Custom Lens Replacement at ClearSight. It differs from other IOLs by offering continuous, seamless vision at near, intermediate, and distance ranges, significantly reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses. What sets it apart is the combination of advanced optical technologies—such as ActivSync Optic for intelligent light distribution, ClearPath for reduced scatter and enhanced contrast, and TruSight for durability. The lens is made from a glistening-free hydrophobic acrylic material, which helps maintain long-term clarity and minimizes visual disturbances like halos and glare. With FDA and Health Canada approval, the enVista Envy stands out as a reliable and innovative option for patients seeking more freedom from glasses after surgery. At ClearSight, we’re proud to offer the enVista Envy lens to help our patients enjoy sharp, comfortable vision in all parts of their daily lives—without having to rely on glasses.
How does the Bausch & Lomb enVista Envy lens compare to other trifocal lenses?
The Bausch + Lomb enVista Envy lens stands out from other trifocal lenses because it offers a smoother, more natural range of vision. While many trifocal lenses focus on just a couple of distances, the enVista Envy helps you see clearly up close, far away, and everything in between—without the noticeable “gaps” some people experience with other options. It’s also designed to reduce the annoying halos and glare that can happen with some lenses, especially at night. People who choose this lens often say they’re able to do everyday things like reading, using a computer, or driving without needing glasses, and they’re happy with how their vision feels overall. At ClearSight, we love offering this lens to patients who want sharp, dependable vision and fewer compromises after cataract surgery or Custom Lens Replacement.
Who is a candidate for the Bausch & Lomb enVista Envy lens?
The Bausch + Lomb enVista Envy lens is a great option for adults who are having cataract surgery or choosing Custom Lens Replacement and want to see clearly at all distances without relying heavily on glasses. It’s best suited for people with healthy eyes who don’t have serious eye conditions and are hoping to restore sharp vision for everyday tasks like reading, working on a computer, or driving. Patients with mild to moderate astigmatism can also benefit from the toric version of the lens, which is designed to correct that specific issue. If you’ve started to notice changes in your near vision due to age (called presbyopia), this lens may also be a good fit. At ClearSight, we’ll help you understand if this lens is the right choice for your eyes and your goals, so you know what to expect and feel confident moving forward.
