Very close to being substantially perfect
With the invention of the Universal Blank, Benz R&D condensed the majority of IOL manufacturing onto a single part. Now, Benz’ proprietary molding technology is redefining the limits of IOL precision.
Ultra precise, repeatable, and free of defects
Your patients deserve peace of mind. They deserve the highest standard in clarity and reliability. So demand the world leader in IOL technology — ask for Benz molded optics.
We set limits to what we'll accept and we won't.
The Benz Injection Molding Team works hard to produce a an optic that is molded instead of machined, making it highly repeatable and cost efficient.
The goal of automation is to make something repeatable.
The Benz Automation Design Team strives to turn molded blanks production into a fully automated process, which makes the world’s highest performing optic cost efficient to produce.
The harder the project, the better
All materials are not the same
As patients live longer, and have IOL surgeries earlier in life, there is a growing need for lens materials that will deliver decades of trouble-free performance. With over 45 million implants and zero recalls, Benz materials are engineered for the challenge.
Experience the benefits of the purest materials on Earth
Benz R&D is the only producer of pharmaceutical-grade monomers for the IOL industry. How do we do it? The hard way: through science.
It's always coming, right around the corner
See how a fast-paced culture of innovation drives discoveries like Benz Natural Yellow, the industry’s only naturally occurring UV-blocking material. What’s next from the minds at Benz? Whatever it is, it’s guaranteed to raise the bar in IOL materials performance.
Benz' unique processes produce ultra consistent materials
Benz’ proprietary polymerization technologies transform liquid monomers into solid materials ready for lens manufacture, with no compromise in purity.
Whatever the doctor orders, that is what you will get
Watch as “quite a few robots” express Benz’ relentless commitment to innovation, through patented, original manufacturing technology that is the high-precision physical counterpart to Benz’ renowned material purity.
The A-to-Z of Benz’ patented, industry-leading processes
From Monomer to state-of-the-art IOL, Benz R&D is reimagining the creation of IOL’s to meet future demands for smaller micro-incisions and longer useful life. No one else makes IOLs this way, because no one else has tried.
