The Power of LenSx
Clinically Proven Results
In an early clinical study, Dr. Zoltan Nagy of Semmelweis University in Budapest evaluated LenSx's ability to create lens fragmentation, perform anterior capsulotomy and create self-sealing corneal incisions.1 In the study Dr. Nagy was able to demonstrate that:
- Lens fragmentation with the LenSx® Laser significantly reduced average phaco power when compared to traditional, manual technique1
- All anterior capsulotomies created with the LenSx Laser achieved perfect centration and exact intended diameter, with no radial tears or adverse events seen. In the same study, only 10% of manually created capsulorhexis achieved a similar diameter accuracy of +/-0.25 mm1,2
Diameter Accuracy1
Only 10% of manual rhexis achieved diameter accuracy of +/- 0.25 mm
- Corneal incisions created with the LenSx system were also highly reproducible, with precise dimensions and geometry. Combined with the benefits of the LenSx Laser capsulotomy, this precision may enable a new level of refractive control in cataract surgery1
