SAs of different orders are the only relevant Zernike polynomials in this new class of wavefront-shaped IOLs. RaySof EMV proved to be a monofocal IOL with increased positive SA. The central change in radial power and the resulting increase in negative SA in Eyhance IOL might produce some depth of field. The magnitude of SA modification of Vivity and LuxSmart is expected to extend the depth of focus considerably. Surgeons can select among these novel IOLs depending on corneal asphericity and the patient's wish for spectacle independence.
