SUPERIOR CATARACT I.Q. Femtosecond laser cataract technology just got smarter. Only LensAR's Augmented Reality technology gives you a 3D view of the anterior anatomy, so that every laser pulse can be precisely placed – giving you confidence and peace of mind. To find out more about improving your cataract I.Q. visit www.lensar.com. The LensAR Laser System is indicated for anterior capsulotomy and laser phaco fragmentation during cataract surgery. The anterior capsulotomy and laser phaco fragmentation procedures may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same surgery. Laser capsulotomy and/or laser phaco fragmentation surgery is contraindicated in patients: who are of pediatric age, whose pupils will not dilate or remain dilated to a diameter greater than that of the intended treatment and for capsulotomies and/or laser phaco fragmentation with intended diameters of less than 4 mm or greater than 7 mm, who have existing corneal implants, who have conditions that would cause inadequate clearance between the intended capsulotomy cut and the corneal endothelium, such as: hypotony, uncontrolled, glaucoma, who have corneal disease or pathology that precludes transmission of light at the laser wavelength or causes distortion of laser light, such as: residual, recurrent, active ocular or uncontrolled eyelid disease or any corneal abnormalities (including endothelial dystrophy, guttata, recurrent corneal erosion etc.) in the eye to be treated, ophthalmoscopic signs of keratoconus (or keratoconus suspect) in the eye to be treated, a history of severe dry eye that has not responded to therapy, a history of herpes zoster or herpes simplex keratitis. WARNING: The safety and effectiveness of this laser have NOT been established in patients with diabetic retinopathy, a history of treated glaucoma, or prior intraocular surgery.
