SPECIAL ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT
Create More Space With This Pupil Enlarger
Help cataract surgeons create more working space more easily
with the X1 Ready-Loaded Iris Speculum from Diamatrix.
Surgeons can inject the sterile, single-use nitinol ring through
any incision as small as 2.4 mm, using the included injector.
The injector's ergonomic, no-slip ridges provide superior
control. A no-rise slide helps prevent unplanned device
movement. Once the the 8-point fixation system is in place, the
result is a wide-open, stable 8 mm pupil— one full millimeter
greater than other brands. It's easy to position and remove—
use any push-pull type manipulator. Request a complimentary
evaluation.

This Laser is Good for Patients AND Your
Facility
Deliver better outcomes for your glaucoma patients and
excellent economics for your facility with Ellex's selective laser
trabeculoplasty (SLT) technology. Using low-energy light, SLT
targets and irradiates the pigmented (melanin) cells in the
trabecular meshwork, stimulating improved outflow. Ellex's
system provides superior energy control, a sharp-edged aiming
beam and an impressive firing rate of three shots per second.
Hospital outpatient departments can collect a facility fee of
$487 for hosting the procedure, while ASCs can collect $136.

An IV Sedation Alternative for Cataract Patients
Significantly reduce or eliminate IV anesthetics for cataract
surgeries with the IV Free MKO Melt conscious sedation tablet
from Imprimis Pharmaceuticals. Administered under the
tongue, MKO Melt dissolves within minutes. It provides a
consistent, predictable dose, making life easier for anesthesia
pros and happier for patients who fear needles. MKO Melt is
cost effective: At just $15 per dose (for a two-troche pack),
you'll reduce your spend on anesthetic supplies and meds and
administer fewer IVs. Patient-specific information is no longer
necessary; MKO Melt is now available from a 503B facility.
