Once the patient is in the OR, I need to find those marks and adjust
them slightly to, say, 2 and 8 o'clock when the patient lies back and
cyclotorsion — the slight rotation of the eye around its axis —
occurs. Being able to dial up 2 and 8 o'clock on the RoboMarker
and mark the cornea
once in pre-op
instead of making
adjustments in the
OR could be a signifi-
cant time-saver. The
marker handle costs
roughly $1,700 and
the disposable pre-
inked tips run $10
per case. Tips that
mark with ink visible
under the infrared
glare of the fem-
tosecond laser are
also available.

ARE YOUR PATIENTS
COMPLAINING OF
VITREOUS FLOATERS?
For years you may have felt like you had to tell symptomatic floater
patients to live with their condition – or hope that their floaters
would go away.
With recent advancements in YAG laser technology you can now
help these patients: laser vitreolysis, a reimbursable procedure,
enables you to sever and vaporize vitreous strands, sheets,
membranes and opacities with greater control and confidence.
The Ultra Q Reflex
™
from Ellex is the only
YAG laser designed for the treatment of
floaters, offering a patented coaxial
illumination and focusing system. To date,
more than 30,000* symptomatic floater
patients have been successfully treated
with the Ultra Q Reflex
™
. This
multi-modality system also offers
Precision Perfect
™
capsulotomy and
iridotomy treatments.
