the next few pages, the features on the new
machines make cataract removal significantly
safer than ever before. Even though you can't
charge more per case for cataract procedures
in the wake of a capital expense, the new
machines can make the procedure more effi-
cient, saving OR time.
Functionally speaking, will the new system
work dramatically better than the technology
your surgeons are operating with now? If the
machine they use is from 2 generations ago,
it's definitely possible that fluidics — the man-
ner in which the machine sucks material out
as it pours new balanced salt solution in to
replace it — have seen some innovations and
improvements since then.
Function and economics should also drive
any potential purchasing decision when,
