This advanced laser system makes it possible to instantly select either a red or green wavelength during treatment, which maximizes treatment options and ensures effective patient results. The Integre Duo can perform laser trabeculoplasty and laser iridotomy in green and suturelysis in red in managing elevated IOP.
Ellex Solitaire The Ellex Solitaire is a full-featured, solid-state green laser system that is portable and versatile for use in both operating rooms and clinics. Compact and efficient, it is designed for use with a wide variety of industry-standard delivery systems and accessories, and it can be used to perform laser trabeculoplasty and laser iridotomy in managing elevated IOP associated with glaucoma.
Ellex Super Q The Ellex Super Q YAG laser provides precise and reliable treatments for anterior eye disease. The Super Q is designed for easy transport between multiple sites and combines comprehensive safety features with a firing rate of up to 2 Hz. It provides an effective treatment option for closed-angle glaucoma patients.
Ellex Ultra Q The Ellex Ultra Q is the ophthalmic industry’s premier capsulotomy and iridotomy YAG laser. With a firing rate of up to 3 Hz, it is the industry’s fastest photodisruptor. The Ultra Q features a custom-designed laser cavity, as well as a fine, two-point focusing system to provide a high level of precision when treating closed-angle glaucoma patients with iridotomy.
