Ophthalmic Laser Carl Zeiss VISULAS YAG III, NEW!

* Safe: The Super-Gaussian beam profile ensures that optical breakdown is achieved with very low pulse energies. The result: fewer side effects for the patient and less risk.
* Precise: The 4-point aiming beam system facilitates the ability to focus with extreme precision and to detect any astigmatic distortion before firing the laser.
* Ergonomic: The design guarantees unobstructed visual contact with the patient and free access to the eye. The control console contains a large illuminated display for menu-guided operation.

The VISULAS YAG III is the new disruption laser from Carl Zeiss Meditec designed in particular for applications in posterior capsulotomy (post-cataract therapy) and iridotomy. However, the YAG laser is also used for trabeculotomy, anterior capsulotomy and for IOL polishing. It's another milestone in the development of state-of-the-art, practice-oriented ophthalmic laser systems for photodisruption.

The patented ZEISS Super-Gaussian beam profile of VISULAS YAG III ensures that optical breakdown is achieved with very low pulse energies (2.5 mJ in Air). The result: fewer side effects for the patient and less risk thanks to an extremely high level of accuracy during therapy. This unique beam profile allows for efficient therapy even in the most difficult cases. The sharply defined focus of therapy beam and the highly consistent pulses permit constant tissue effects and leads to a low risk of lens pits.
Anterior and Posterior focus shift reduces the risk of secondary effects, permits optimum defocusing for each application and hence greater safety for the patient.

The 4-point aiming beam system facilitates the ability to focus with extreme precision and to detect any astigmatic distortion before firing the laser. Whether in front or behind the lens, the variable focus shift ensures that the site of laser action and the focal plane of the microscope are always finely harmonized. The optimized laser slit lamp with slightly lowered prism head allows for unrestricted central illumination during treatment (YAG laser shoots over top of prism head). In addition, the ability to adjust the horizontal illumination angle increases flexibility during the application and reduces reflections.

The new design of the unit consisting of the laser head, laser slit lamp and control panel guarantees unobstructed visual contact with the patient and free access to his or her eye. The slim design of the laser head also simplifies tonometry.
The separate control unit with touch screen has a high visibility, easy-to-read display with optimized font size and color design. The control unit can be positioned anywhere required and is also suitable for presbyopic users. Parameter setting is language-independent thanks to use of icons that allow for intuitive operation. Intra-office mobility of the product is easily accomplished with the optional transport case.
