YAG microsurgical laser Super Q

Revolutionizing Ophthalmic Surgery: Ellex Super Q YAG Microsurgical Laser Overview

The Ellex Super Q YAG microsurgical laser sets a new standard in anterior segment viewing with its optimized slit lamp optics. These optics, designed with Galilean converging technology and a 16° stereoscopic angle, offer a natural stereoscopic view and a shallow depth of field for precise focusing. This combination enhances the accuracy of procedures, ensuring surgeons have clear and detailed visualization during operations.

Integrated laser and slit lamp technology by Ellex enhances efficiency, reliability, and ease of use. By consolidating these components, the Super Q offers a streamlined workflow, allowing surgeons to seamlessly transition between patient examination and laser treatment. The compact design of the Super Q not only saves space but also provides convenient access to both the patient and laser controls, optimizing the surgical environment for enhanced productivity.

The Super Q's solid-state Q-switch, crafted from top-quality components, undergoes rigorous life-testing to ensure durability and performance. With a capability to deliver over 400,000 shots without significant degradation in energy output or beam quality, surgeons can rely on the Super Q for consistent and reliable performance throughout its lifespan. Additionally, the system's fine two-point focusing system, with a tolerance range of ± 8 µm, enables precise targeting and delivery of energy to the intended area, ensuring optimal treatment outcomes for patients.

The Ellex Super Q YAG microsurgical laser offers unmatched flexibility with its continuously variable posterior offset control adjustment, ranging from 100 to 350 microns. This feature provides surgeons with optimum flexibility, allowing precise customization based on the specific requirements of each procedure. Whether performing anterior or posterior segment treatments, the Super Q empowers surgeons with the control needed to achieve optimal outcomes.

Equipped with state-of-the-art YAG laser technology, the Super Q ensures more consistent optical breakdown, particularly beneficial for addressing new challenges in posterior capsulotomy procedures. Surgeons can expect reduced risk of lens pitting, enhanced tissue cutting efficiency with fewer shots, and the delivery of less cumulative energy. These advancements translate to faster procedures and improved patient comfort, contributing to a smoother surgical experience and faster recovery times.

With a fast firing rate of up to 2 shots per second (2 Hz), the Super Q enables surgeons to perform treatments swiftly and efficiently. This high-speed capability minimizes procedure duration, allowing for increased patient throughput without compromising on precision or safety. Furthermore, the Super Q's slimline console and small, space-saving tabletop design optimize physician and patient comfort, ensuring a conducive environment for successful outcomes and patient satisfaction.

The Ellex Super Q YAG microsurgical laser operates at a wavelength of 1064 nm, offering precise and targeted energy delivery for various ophthalmic procedures. With an energy range of 0.3 to 10 mJ per single pulse, the Super Q provides surgeons with the flexibility to adjust energy levels according to the specific requirements of each treatment. This continuously variable energy control ensures optimal tissue interaction and minimizes the risk of collateral damage, enhancing the safety and effectiveness of procedures.

Featuring a pulse width of 4 nanoseconds, the Super Q delivers rapid and efficient energy pulses, allowing for precise tissue ablation with minimal thermal damage. Surgeons can further customize treatment parameters with the burst mode option, which offers 1, 2, or 3 pulses per burst, selectable based on procedural needs. This versatility enables surgeons to tailor treatment protocols to individual patient characteristics, ensuring optimal outcomes and patient satisfaction.

The Super Q's spot size of 8 micrometers provides excellent precision and control during laser application, allowing surgeons to target specific areas with pinpoint accuracy. Additionally, the device offers a continuously variable posterior offset ranging from 100 to 350 micrometers, along with a cone angle of 16 degrees. These adjustable parameters further enhance the versatility and customization options available to surgeons, enabling them to optimize treatment delivery for a wide range of ophthalmic conditions and patient anatomies.
