A MasterChef’s vision: Real stories with Galaxy & Sophi

At the Ophthalpreneurs 2025 meeting in Italy, Dr Ben LaHood (Australia) hosted a discussion with ophthalmologists Mr Kieren Darcy (UK) and Dr Andrzej Dmitriew (Poland) about the evolving landscape of premium IOLs and the transition from diffractive to refractive technology with the introduction of RayOne Galaxy, the world’s first spiral IOL. The conversation delved into the impact of bothersome dysphotopsia on patient satisfaction and how the RayOne Galaxy lens addresses common issues like halos and glare whilst delivering full range of vision. The surgeons also shared real-world experiences with the lens, including cases involving family members and a Masterchef celebrity, along with the outcomes they’ve observed. Dr Dmitriew further discussed his role as a Rayner Centre of Excellence and how integrating the Sophi Phaco System has the potential to enhance surgical outcomes in his practice.
