Photodisruptors | Photocoagulators | SLT Photoregeneration |
Photodisruptors are Nd:YAG lasers that deliver short pulses of infrared light in the form of microplasma bursts. In ophthalmology, they have become essential tools for removing the scar tissue and opacity that can occur after cataract surgery, and for lowering the pressure associated with angle closure glaucoma. Ellex is the preferred manufacturer of photodisruptors, supplying over 50 percent of the global market. | Photocoagulators are used to manage glaucoma and retina disorders like diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. They deliver visible light through the clear "window" at the front of the eye to cauterise leaky blood vessels and other targets beneath the retina. Photocoagulators can be used either in outpatient clinics or operating rooms. | To manage the intraocular pressure associated with open angle glaucoma, Ellex offers two Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) systems: Tango and Solo. SLT uses low energy light to target and irradiate melanin-rich cells in the trabecular meshwork without affecting the surrounding structure. In response, the body automatically rebuilds the meshwork, which increases aqueous outflow, restores normal function and reduces intraocular pressure. |
Diagnostic Ultrasound | |
| Ellex expanded its product line to include the ophthalmic industry’s premier diagnostic ultrasound device. The Ellex Eye Cubed offers unparalleled sensitivity and highest-quality image resolution. The system features real-time imaging, advanced movie mode using the fastest sampling rate available, and internal memory for storage of measurements – all of which advance and improve the diagnostic process.
