Oertli Surgical Platforms
Oertli’s surgical platforms are designed to support ophthalmic surgeons, particularly vitreoretinal specialists, by enhancing their surgical experience.
The OS 4 system offers a versatile solution for posterior segment surgery, featuring a multi-pump fluidics system with proprietary SPEEP (speed and precision) function and optional integrated laser and illumination options. Its design supports efficient workflow and precise control during delicate procedures.
To expand on these possibilities, the Faros system balances portability with advanced dual-pump functionality at a low cost.
The CataRhex 3 provides a compact alternative for cataract surgeries in mobile or space-limited environments.

Blutein Dyes
In addition to its proven range of Stellaris anterior, posterior combined, and laser machines, Bausch and Lomb now also has a range of selective dyes to help visualise the anterior capsule (Dye200), the vitreous (Dye300), and a combined stain for visualising the epiretinal membrane and the internal limiting membrane (Dye500). Unlike other synthetic dyes, Bausch and Lomb’s Blutein dyes contain naturally sourced lutein, which may help protect the retina during surgery by absorbing blue light, acting as an antioxidant that may be harmful to the retina, and by reducing iatrogenic stress to the retina, allowing faster recovery after surgery.

Eva Nexus
Featuring VacuFlow VTi fluidics and Smart intraocular pressure (IOP) technology, the Eva Nexus surgical system adjusts irrigation/infusion pressure to maintain a constant IOP during surgery and improve stability during procedures. The Eva Nexus is optimised to work with TDC Veloce, a two-dimensional cutter that operates at up to 20,000 cuts per minute, with a dual-stroke design that facilitates cutting on both forward and return motions.
It is available in 23G, 25G, and 27G sizes, and offers ergonomic enhancements, such as a contoured soft grip and increased shaft stiffness. Now supported directly by ZEISS in both Australia and New Zealand, the combination of Eva Nexus and TDC Veloce offers users a cutting-edge solution for vitreoretinal procedures.

Baxter Welch Allyn Spot Vision Screener
Baxter Welch Allyn Spot Vision Screener is a handheld, non-invasive device designed to detect amblyopic risk factors in patients as young as six months. With auto-capture technology and engaging fixation targets, it delivers accurate, easy-to-interpret results in seconds – ideal for paediatric clinics, schools, and community screenings. The device identifies six common vision issues including myopia, hyperopia, and strabismus. Minimal training is required, and results can be exported wirelessly or via USB. Always read the label and follow the directions for use.

Oculus LenZ
The Oculus LenZ disposable vitrectomy lens is a high-quality, single use contact lens system designed specifically for ZEISS microscopes in posterior segment surgery.
It offers both widefield viewing and high magnification, enabling surgeons to switch effortlessly between panoramic overviews and detailed retinal visualisation. The lens delivers excellent optical clarity and maintains a stable position on the eye, supporting precision during vitrectomy, membrane peeling, or retinal repair.
Its disposable design ensures sterility, minimises infection risk, and streamlines surgical workflow. Pre-assembled and ready to use, it reduces setup time in the operating room.

AJL Siobal Silicone Oils
AJL Siobal Silicone Oils are ultra-purified formulations specifically designed for ophthalmological use, ensuring the absence of low molecular weight components that can be harmful.
These silicone oils are effective in treating conditions such as retinal detachment, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, perforating wounds, and proliferative diabetic retinopathy. AJL offers three different viscosities to suit various medical needs: 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 centistokes. This range allows ophthalmologists to select the appropriate silicone oil based on the specific requirements of each case, enhancing patient care and treatment outcomes.

MedOne
MedOne manufactures innovative single-use cannula products for retinal surgery.
VFI cannulae enable fast and easy injection of silicone oil for small gauge surgery, saving time during cases.
The Dual Bore SideFlo cannulae allow the safe injection of perfluorocarbon liquids with better intraocular pressure control and less chance of trauma to the retina by preventing a ‘jet blow out effect’ in these small gauge procedures. Additionally, with the renewed interest in subretinal procedures, MedOne is at the forefront in providing instrumentation for these challenging cases, with an extensive line of subretinal cannulae and a MicroDose Injection Kit.

Spectralis
Imaging underpins fast diagnosis and better decision making in surgical retina. The Spectralis aids this by combining high-quality optical coherence tomography with confocal fundus imaging in one platform.
TruTrack eye-tracking and AutoRescan deliver perfectly registered follow-ups, clarifying progression and true treatment effect. Surgeons can map vitreomacular traction, size macular holes, grade epiretinal membranes, and quantify oedema to triage cases and plan internal limiting membrane (ILM) peel extent. Enhanced depth imaging assesses choroid and lamina in complex detachments or inflammatory disease. BluePeak fundus autofluorescence and MultiColor highlight subretinal fluid, retinal pigment epithelium stress, and subtle tractional folds; fluorescein angiography/indocyanine green angiography reveal ischemia, leakage, and choroidal neovascularisation complicating repair. This modular, upgradeable platform is a true multimodal support.
