ISO 11979-10 Ophthalmic Implants - Intraocular Lenses - Test Standard for Clinical Trials of Intraocular Lenses for Correction of Ametropia in Phakic Eyes

ISO 11979-10 specifies requirements for any intraocular lens to be implanted in the anterior segment of the eye to modify the primary indication's refractive power.

Depending on the optical design, there are three main categories of phakic intraocular lenses;

  • phakic monofocal (PIOL);
  • phakic multifocal (PMIOL);
  • phakic toric (PTIOL).

Each of these categories is also designed for implantation in the anterior or posterior chamber of the anterior segment of the eye. Basic phakic IOL requirements apply to all types. Additional requirements apply to PMIOL and PTIOL designs.

ISO 11979-10 addresses specific clinical requirements for phakic IOLs that are not covered in other parts of ISO 11979.
