Sulcoflex DUET®
An adjustable solution for

correction of presbyopia
Sometimes it takes two. Two lenses in one eye.
As a refractive surgeon, achieving perfect visual

results for your patients is paramount. Even with
the best patient selection and most accurate work,
results can change.
Wouldn’t it be great to have a lens system that

gives you more than one shot? An option that is
adjustable?
Introducing to the Sulcoflex® DUET procedure.
The Sulcoflex® DUET procedure involves the sequential

implantation of a primary capsular bag IOL and a
supplementary Sulcoflex® sulcus IOL. This is done
as a planned DUET procedure during the initial
cataract surgery.
The DUET is an easy procedure, adding little time to

the overall cataract surgery, and yet offers an elegant
adjustable solution.
How do I DUET?
Smooth undulating haptics to Posterior concave surface

minimise the risk of adverse to avoid contact with
tissue reaction in the sulcus. 2 the primary IOL.1
The DUET procedure is centred on Rayner’s

Sulcoflex® lenses. These IOLs have been specifically
designed for sulcus implantation and as such, the
problems associated with the practice of
“piggybacking” - two biconvex lenses in the capsular
bag - are now a thing of the past.
The special design of the lens optic and haptics

underlies this unique concept. In order to avoid The Sulcoflex® Trifocal is specifically for
interlenticular opacification, the Sulcoflex® IOLs pseudophakic patients following the implantation
have a concave/convex optic design, which ensures of a primary monofocal or monofocal toric capsular

Then a plano Sulcoflex® Trifocal is implanted

Combining the two lenses provides the patient with
an opportunity for a spectacle free solution.
When would I DUET?
The DUET procedure using Sulcoflex® Trifocal could

become your solution of choice for all patients who
demand an opportunity for being spectacle free.
The simple step of implanting a second lens can

easily be incorporated into any existing cataract
surgery procedure.
A wider patient selection using Sulcoflex® Trifocal

DUET procedure:
There are several reasons why a patient may not
be suitable for a capsular bag multifocal IOL. Through
the option of reversibility, the Sulcoflex® Trifocal
DUET procedure may offer a solution for
these patients.
Injector
• Works with any monofocal or toric primary Implantation of the Sulcoflex® Trifocal within a
capsular bag IOL DUET procedure is made easy with the Medicel
• Available in 0.25 dioptre increments from Accuject 1.8P-1 (LP604540) – recommended and
-1.0 to + 1.0 provided by Rayner.
• Wider range in 0.5 dioptre increments from
-3.0 to +3.0
Exploiting the benefits of reversibility and adjustability
Challenging patients may expect more, and demand a

chance of being spectacle free.
The Sulcoflex® Trifocal supplementary IOL is an

adjustable option which allows you to treat an even
wider range of patients for presbyopia, to meet both
their visual and lifestyle needs.
Unlike capsular bag multifocal IOLs or refractive laser

treatments, the Sulcoflex® Trifocal DUET procedure is
easily reversed. Refractive change or surprise cannot
be predicted, and nor can a failure to neuroadapt.
Through the DUET procedure, the optic system can be
easily adjusted with a different Sulcoflex® Trifocal or
converted back to monofocality in a straightforward
procedure. It may seem counter-intuitive to implant a lens in
anticipation of its removal, but for Premium Channel
cataract and refractive surgeons, the ability to offer patients
• Plan for excellence with a simultaneous implantation
the benefits of a specialist lens knowing that the procedure
• Treat ametropia after cataract surgery can be reversed at a later date, is highly reassuring.
• Reversible – more flexibility for you and your patient
The Sulcoflex® DUET procedure empowers surgeons with
the ability to offer refractive treatments to their patients
without needing to invest in expensive laser equipment. This
cost-efficient treatment option can easily be incorporated
into any existing cataract surgery environment.
Not only as DUET procedure, but for ‘Top-Up’ as well
Sulcoflex offers an even wider opportunity.

Through a secondary procedure for those historic cataract patients who require further visual enhancements, you can
correct pseudophakic presbyopia, residual corneal astigmatism or refractive surprise with the Sulcoflex® range of IOLs.
Ask your Rayner sales representative for further information.
“Supplementary IOLs offer a safer, less traumatic

option for pseudophakic ametropia for enhancing
postrefractive results compared with IOL exchange.”
