From protocol to dataset

Standardize the assessment. Structure the evidence.

Guide participants through a repeatable functional-vision workflow and document observations at research-relevant distances.

01

Define the protocol

Choose the assessment context and establish a repeatable sequence for the study cohort.

02

Assess on iPad

Use a focused, portable interface to guide standardized participant interactions.

03

Review over time

Bring structured observations into visit comparisons and longitudinal research review.

Understand the application

From research workspace to exportable result.

IOLResearch connects every participant, procedure, and visit inside a study structure designed to keep measurements organized and repeatable.

Organize access

Separate workspaces for separate research contexts.

Create distinct databases for a study, center, or collaboration so unrelated subject records do not need to live together.

  • • Name and open a dedicated workspace
  • • Keep each study population organized
  • • Share only the relevant workspace where supported

Research procedures

Measure the complete visual profile.

Explore the procedures available to structure simultaneous-vision research. Hover over or select any badge to reveal what the procedure measures.

Built for research rigor

Acuity is an endpoint. Research needs context.

IOLResearch is designed for teams investigating functional vision after procedures that create simultaneous visual images, including multifocal and extended-depth-of-focus IOL pathways.

IOLResearch is a research support tool in development. It does not replace professional judgment, validated diagnostic equipment, ethics requirements, or study protocols.

More context

Look beyond a single endpoint to support a more complete vision profile.

Repeatable workflows

Bring consistency to assessment steps across patient visits and teams.

Patient-centered

Keep interactions approachable with a focused, touch-first experience.

Portable by design

Bring the assessment to the conversation—not the other way around.

Evidence-centered leadership

From Key Opinion Leader to Key Evidence Leader.

A Key Evidence Leader (KEL) is a clinician or researcher whose influence is grounded in the critical evaluation, generation, and application of clinical evidence. The emphasis moves from personal authority toward transparent, reproducible, and patient-relevant knowledge.

Traditional model

KOL

Key Opinion Leader

Influence is commonly associated with reputation, seniority, professional experience, and the ability to shape peer opinion or practice.

  • 01Experience- and reputation-led influence
  • 02Interprets and communicates knowledge to peers
  • 03May or may not participate directly in research

Evidence-led model

KEL

Key Evidence Leader

Influence is earned through research expertise, analytical rigor, transparent communication, and the ability to translate evidence into clinically meaningful questions and practice.

  • 01Data- and research-driven decision making
  • 02Active involvement in generating and appraising evidence
  • 03Commitment to transparency, integrity, and collaboration

This distinction is summarized from Fernández J. et al., The conceptualization of ‘Key Evidence Leaders’ from ‘Opinion Leaders’: A review also applicable in ophthalmology.

Research sponsors

Supporting KEL-led research.

Sponsors are industry organizations supporting Key Evidence Leaders in their use of IOLResearch and in the development of structured simultaneous-vision research workflows.

Sponsor support does not replace each study team’s responsibility for protocol governance, disclosures, analysis, or interpretation of results. The sponsor grid is designed to accommodate additional partners as the program grows.

Questions, answered

Before your study begins.

Who is IOLResearch for?

It is designed for clinical researchers studying functional vision around simultaneous-vision procedures, particularly intraocular lens pathways.

Does it replace standard clinical testing?

No. IOLResearch is intended to support—not replace—professional judgment, validated diagnostic equipment, or your required protocols.

Is the application available now?

Early access is currently limited. Join the list below to share your use case and receive launch updates.

What do I need to run it?

The product is being designed as an iPad application. Supported hardware, OS versions, and availability will be confirmed before launch.
