Predictika · Implantable lens orders
An AI sales agent prepares an order for EVO or EVO+ Visian Toric Implantable Collamer Lenses: the lens model, spherical and cylindrical power, overall diameter, the patient's age and eye status, the anterior chamber depth and the ordering surgeon's certification. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the labeling in STAAR's public directions for use and returns a verdict, every reason and the lens count it computed.
This validator models orders for the EVO Visian Toric ICL (model VTICMO) and EVO+ Visian Toric ICL (model VTICM5) as described in STAAR Surgical's public directions for use, eDFU-0010 Rev 04 (read October 9, 2026), not just the scenarios shown below.
Any EVO or EVO+ Visian Toric ICL order that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (none are modeled), the non-toric EVO Visian ICL and other STAAR lenses, lens power and size calculation (the surgeon does this), different lenses for the two eyes on one order, and regional labeling differences. This is an order check against the labeling, not medical advice.

What this means
Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.
| What the validator caught | Typical rules-based CPQ | Predictika |
|---|---|---|
| A power range that depends on the lens model | Only with care The EVO and EVO+ lenses stop at different powers, so the power rule has to be written per model and kept in step with the labeling. | The model and the power are in one request and compared on every call, and the range is named in the finding. |
| Patient facts such as age, eye status and chamber depth | Only with workarounds A CPQ holds products and accounts, not patient data. Those limits are usually left to the sales rep or the clinic, or need extra custom fields and rules. | Patient age, eye status and chamber depth are fields in the request and are checked with the rest of the order. |
| Contraindications and the surgeon's certification | Only with workarounds These are statements about the patient and the buyer rather than the product, so they need custom questions, account lookups and rules that someone must keep up to date. | Each contraindication and the certification are fields in the request and every one that applies is reported. |
| Every problem returned in one answer | Only with workarounds Rules tend to fire as the quote is saved or a step is completed, so a rep often fixes one error and meets the next. | All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in. |
Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.
| 1 | The VTICMO lens is made in spherical powers from -18.0 D to -0.5 D; the order has -18.5 D. |
| 2 | The VTICM5 lens is made in spherical powers from -14.0 D to -0.5 D; the order has -14.5 D. |
| 3 | The VTICMO lens is made in spherical powers from -18.0 D to -0.5 D; the order has -0.25 D. |
| 4 | The toric lens is made in cylindrical powers from +0.5 D to +6.0 D; the order has 0.25 D. |
| 5 | The toric lens is made in cylindrical powers from +0.5 D to +6.0 D; the order has 6.5 D. |
| 6 | The lens is made in overall diameters of 12.1, 12.6, 13.2 and 13.7 mm; the order has an overall diameter of 13.0 mm. |
| 7 | The lens is indicated for patients 21 years of age and older, and persons under 21 are contraindicated; the patient is 20. |
| 8 | Phakic eyes are indicated for patients 21 to 60 years of age; the patient is 61. |
| 9 | For a pseudophakic eye the anterior chamber depth entered must be the true ACD, which is the phakic depth measured before the IOL implant or the measured depth adjusted by subtracting 1.5 mm for OCT or 1.2 mm for optical biometry; a person should confirm the figure. |
| 10 | The lens requires an anterior chamber depth of at least 2.8 mm measured from the corneal endothelium to the anterior lens capsule; the order has 2.7 mm. |
| 11 | Primary open angle or narrow angle glaucoma is a contraindication for the lens. |
| 12 | Any cataract in the operative eye, or a non-traumatic cataract in the fellow eye, is a contraindication for the lens. |
| 13 | Ocular hypertension in either eye is a contraindication for the lens. |
| 14 | Narrow anterior chamber angles (less than Grade III on gonioscopic exam) are a contraindication for the lens. |
| 15 | A patient who is pregnant or nursing is contraindicated for the lens. |
| 16 | A patient who is amblyopic or blind in the fellow eye is contraindicated for the lens. |
| 17 | Low or abnormal corneal endothelial cell density, Fuchs dystrophy or other corneal pathology is a contraindication for the lens. |
| 18 | All physicians must complete the STAAR EVO and EVO+ TICL Physician Certification Program before the first procedure; the ordering surgeon has not. |
| 19 | The order has no lens for either eye. |
| 20 | The order states 1 lens in total; the eyes ordered give 2. |
| 21 | Safety and effectiveness are not established for unstable refractive error, keratoconus, a history of iritis or uveitis, synechia, pigment dispersion syndrome, pseudoexfoliation, insulin-dependent diabetes or diabetic retinopathy, or previous ocular surgery; the surgeon should confirm this patient is suitable. |
