Maui, Hawaii, USA – Presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) are advancing rapidly, but the preoperative patient experience has long lacked tools for meaningful personalization. That changed at the Hawaiian Eye & Retina 2025 conference, where Dr. Jay Pepose presented SimVis, a technology developed by 2EyesVision that allows patients to preview how they will see with different IOLs—before surgery. This new capability could transform clinical workflows and significantly improve patient confidence and satisfaction in visual outcomes.
SimVis is an advanced visual simulator that enables real-world, binocular simulation of multifocal, monofocal, EDOF, or mixed intraocular lenses. Unlike virtual reality or screen-based estimations, SimVis projects actual optical patterns through wearable devices, providing a dynamic and realistic preview of postoperative vision. This allows patients to “test-drive” their vision with various lenses, supporting truly informed decision-making in refractive and cataract surgery.
At this year’s Hawaiian Eye & Retina Conference in Hawaii, Dr. Jay Pepose delivered a compelling presentation on the clinical value of SimVis. He emphasized how the technology fills a critical gap in current preoperative assessments.
“SimVis allows patients to test-drive their IOL options preoperatively, offering a realistic preview of postoperative outcomes,” said Dr. Pepose. “It empowers both patients and surgeons.”
SimVis enhances more than just technical accuracy; it supports better relationships between surgeons and patients by reducing uncertainty and aligning expectations. For patients, understanding what to expect before surgery reduces anxiety and increases trust in the chosen solution. For clinics, it strengthens the premium offering and adds value to consultations.
