  • SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20220202566
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a system for two-photon or multi-photon irradiating an artificial lens, preferably an intraocular lens preferably arranged within an eye of a patient and a method for locally adjusting a polarizability and/or a refractive index of an artificial lens preferably an intraocular lens preferably arranged within an eye of a patient. The method relates in particular to fabrication of optical profiles by adjusting polarizability through two- or multi-photon processes in a non-destructive manner.
