EVA
Dutch Ophthalmic's recently approved
all-in-one phaco/vit machine can be a
real asset, considering how expensive
retina machines are on their own. As
every surgeon knows, the volume is in
cataracts, but it's also helpful to have
retina capability, and this has high-end
phaco and retina capacity. It's a one-

coded, so setup time is fast and
turnover time is reduced, according to the rep. With both peristaltic
and vacuum options, you can choose whichever pump is most
advantageous. It also has economical LED illumination. Retina
requires disposable tubing, but the reusable tubing and needles for
phaco are another plus.
