Reference the labeling for a complete listing of Important Indications and Safety Information.
CAUTION: Federal law restricts these devices to sale by or on order of a physician.
CATALYS
®
Precision Laser System
INDICATIONS: The CATALYS
®
System is indicated for use in patients undergoing cataract surgery for removal of the crystalline lens. Intended uses in cataract
surgery include anterior capsulotomy, phacofragmentation, and the creation of single-plane and multi-plane arc cuts/incisions in the cornea, each of which
may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same procedure.
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Should not be used in patients with corneal ring and/or inlay implants, severe corneal opacities, corneal abnormalities, significant
corneal edema or diminished aqueous clarity that obscures OCT imaging of the anterior lens capsule, patients younger than 22 years of age, descemetocele
with impending corneal rupture, and any contraindications to cataract surgery. ADVERSE EFFECTS: Complications include mild Petechiae and
subconjunctival hemorrhage due to vacuum pressure of the LIQUID OPTICS Interface suction ring. Potential complications and adverse events include those
generally associated with the performance of capsulotomy and lens fragmentation, or creation of a partial-thickness or full-thickness cut or incision of the
cornea. CAUTION: Should be used only by qualified physicians who have extensive knowledge of the use of this device and have been trained and certified
by Abbott Medical Optics/OptiMedica.
