Schwind Amaris 1050RS - Laser Vision Correction






 


The SCHWIND AMARIS 1050RS is the product of continuous development work and is the most powerful excimer laser in the AMARIS product family.

The innovative laser system delivers an unsurpassed repetition rate of 1050 Hz – currently the highest of all excimer lasers on the market – and consequently an extremely short ablation time of just 1.3 seconds per dioptre. That means even greater safety and comfort for the patient. 

The risk of the cornea drying out is minimised, and the length of time the patient has to fixate on the green light is reduced. It is a performance leap that brings maximum safety and enhanced patient comfort.

Active 7D eye tracking means that the SCHWIND AMARIS 1050RS combines space and time in an innovative technology without latency time. 

The ground-breaking ‘Latency-Free Tracking’ takes account of eye movements occurring during the period between acquisition of the eye-tracker image and triggering of the subsequent laser pulses – thus, the new target position is known in advance. The ablation process without any latency error offers the patient even more precision.

Muscat Eye Laser embraces new innovations in corneal transplant surgery

10 December 2011, Muscat: Muscat Eye Laser Center, the Sultanate’s leading eye-care clinic, is combining technological advances in corneal transplantation surgery, cutting-edge surgical techniques and superior in-house expertise to dramatically improve the quality of life for patients with corneal pathology. Until recently, the procedure of choice for most patients with severe diseased or damaged corneas was to undergo a full-thickness corneal transplant (also known as a penetrating keratoplasty), in which the entire cornea is replaced, even if only a portion of the cornea is diseased. While this procedure is still being carried out at Muscat Eye Laser Center for those who have severely damaged cornea, ophthalmologists at the Center have also mastered new innovative procedures that allow for the removal and replacement of only the affected layer of the corneal tissue. The upshot, says Dr. Juan G. Graviria, Scientific Director, is that patients now enjoy better outcomes, faster r...

Muscat Eye Laser Center goes high-tech with acquisition of Avedro system

19 November 2011, Muscat: Reinforcing its position at the cutting-edge of eye-care services in the Sultanate, Muscat Eye Laser Center has announced the addition of the breakthrough Avedro System to its ever-expanding technological capabilities in the treatment of corneal problems. The Avedro System, coveted by the world’s leading eye-care clinics, is currently the equipment of choice in the treatment of keratoconus, a degenerative disorder of the cornea , in which there is a progressive change of its curvature, leading to an abnormal conical shape . The Avedro KXL System offers a superfast, safe and non-invasive alternative to stop the progression of keratoconus and, in many cases, to avoid the need of penetrating keratoplasty (cornea transplant). “The system is designed to perform accelerated corneal cross-linking procedure (KXL) that represents a qualitative leap over the traditional corneal collagen cross-linking procedure. While the latter procedure usually ...

Glaucoma - The Thief of Sight

Glaucoma - The Thief of Sight WHAT IS GLAUCOMA?  Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve - which is the connection between the eye and the brain - If it is not treated, glaucoma can cause vision loss and irreversible blindness. According to a study published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology, by 2020, 80 Million people will suffer  from Glaucoma globally and this number is on the rise   WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF GLAUCOMA?  Glaucoma is referred to as the “silent thief of sight” and can affect one or both eyes. There are no symptoms during the early stages as vision stays normal and there is no pain.  As the disease gets worse, peripheral vision will begin to fail, this means that objects straight ahead of you may be clear but objects to your sides may not be seen. Over time, glaucoma will eventually also affect the central vision causing permanent vision loss or blindness How do y...
