Excimer Laser VISX Star S4 IR
The excimer laser is the primary tool for laser vision correction surgery – it generates a ‘cool’, ultraviolet beam that precisely corrects the designated area of the cornea, preserving adjacent tissues intact.
- VISX lasers are the most commonly chosen lasers by ophthalmologists worldwide.
- Variable frequency and variable beam size technologies – unavailable in competitors – significantly enhance the precision of ablation.
- Extremely numerous automatic safety systems, including Iris Registration™ and ActiveTrak 3D™.
- STAR S4 IR is the most advanced model of the VISX excimer laser (a brand owned by the Abbott corporation).
Femtosecond Laser 5th Generation iFS™
The latest type of device in ophthalmology – the femtosecond laser – operates by generating exceptionally short bursts of light (1 femtosecond is 10-15 seconds). In refractive surgery, it replaces the microkeratome. Additionally, the femtosecond laser has many other applications – such as in corneal transplants or cataract surgery. For many doctors, this type of laser is considered the future of ophthalmology.
- By eliminating the blade of the microkeratome from the process of laser vision correction surgery – we enhance precision, safety, and healing speed. More on this topic: here.
- iFS™ is the latest femtosecond laser from the world’s most popular family of femtosecond lasers, INTRALASE.
- In combination with the STAR S4 IR, it constitutes the only combination of devices approved for vision correction for NASA astronauts or US soldiers (using the iLASIK method).
iDesign (Advanced WaveScan Studio)
A tailor-made procedure – enhanced version. The iDesign diagnostic device is the most advanced aberrometer used to measure refractive error of the eye. The device simultaneously performs several measurements including corneal topography, autorefraction, pupillometry, and aberrometry. Simply put, iDesign scans the patient’s cornea in the most accurate way possible to completely eliminate refractive error.
- The Hartmann-Shack method is used for refractive measurement.
- When calculating the ablation profile, 1257(!) measurement points and Fourier analysis are used.
- Customized correction for refractive errors ranging from -13.0 myopia to +6.0 hyperopia and up to 6.0 cylinders of astigmatism.
- It enables the execution of a procedure programmed individually for each patient by directly transferring eye maps to the excimer laser.
Wavefront Diagnostic Platform Wavescan Wavefront™
Wavescan Wavefront is an exceptionally advanced diagnostic device. Its task is to analyze the eyes and create three-dimensional maps, which will be directly uploaded to the laser, but that’s not all. It serves as an aberrometer, topographer, autorefractometer, pupillometer, and keratometer simultaneously.
- By eliminating the microkeratome blade from the course of laser vision correction surgery – we enhance precision, safety, and healing speed. More on this topic: here.
- iFS™ is the latest femtosecond laser from the world’s most popular family of femtosecond lasers, INTRALASE.
- In combination with STAR S4 IR and iFS™, it constitutes the only combination of devices approved for vision correction for NASA astronauts or US soldiers (using the iLASIK method).
Tomograf 3D OCT 2000 (Topcon)
OCT, or optical coherence tomography, is a method used to image the structures of the retina and optic nerve. It also serves in the diagnosis of glaucoma, AMD, diabetic retinopathy, tumors, and many other conditions.
- It replaces three other tests: GDX, HRT, and fluorescein angiography – saving time and money.
- Very high resolution of obtained images.
Pentacam HR (Oculus)
Pentacam is our next ultra-modern device for examining the anterior and posterior segments of the eye, based on a Scheimpflug camera. Rotational imaging enables, among other things, topography, tomography, pachymetry, chamber analysis, and lens density analysis.
- Examination of both the anterior and posterior parts of the eye with previously unattainable accuracy.
- Very short examination time.
- Exceptionally wide range of applications.
Avedro KXL (Avedro)
KXL is a modern device used in the treatment of keratoconus using the cross-linking method. The aim of this method is to halt the progression of the disease process and avoid the need for corneal transplantation.
- It offers rapid cross-linking – compared to conventional cross-linking devices, it allows the exposure time to UV light to be shortened from the traditional 30 minutes to a few minutes, which is vital for eye health.
IOLMaster 500 (Carl Zeiss)
The Biometer IOLMaster 500 is an unparalleled tool in its class for calculating the parameters of intraocular lenses, primarily used in cataract surgery.
- Its task is to generate more precise data than conventional devices and methods used in eye biometry.
iCare contactless tonometer (Icare Finland)
Tonometry, or the measurement of intraocular pressure, is mainly used in the diagnosis of glaucoma. As with any procedure, we aimed to enhance the comfort and effectiveness of the examination.
- The latest iCARE technology allows for the examination to be conducted without the use of anesthesia. The measurement is barely noticeable to the patient, and the absence of an air puff ensures a stress-free examination.
