Dorc Eva Nexus
The Dorc Eva Nexus ophthalmic surgical system enhances precision and efficiency in vitreoretinal surgery. Its fluidics and instruments work together seamlessly, giving the surgeon improved control during procedures.
This responsive platform is based on the unique VacuFlow VTi technology. The VTi pump drives smart fluidics and eliminates the risk of unwanted pulsations or flow, along with next-gen active infusion to achieve constant intraocular pressure during vitrectomy.
The two-dimensional cutter, which is engineered for enhanced rigidity and optimal performance, perfectly complements the advanced fluidics for efficient vitrectomy. The intuitive console and footswitch design also allows for seamless navigation and hands-free control, optimising surgical workflow and reducing fatigue.

SP.Eye Intravitreal Device
The rise of anti-VEGF injections has provided new treatment possibilities for countless patients, but also delivered a new challenge: more people need injections than ever before.
The SP.Eye was developed by ophthalmologists to make injections safer, quicker, and more comfortable for patients.
Safe and easy for ophthalmologists and allied healthcare professionals to use, it requires no speculum or drape, which makes the procedure more comfortable for patients and significantly reduces the time required to perform injections. Additionally, it reduces the amount of medical waste associated with intravitreal injections.
SP.Eye is sharps safe as the needle tip is tucked away and inaccessible after use.

Zeiss Lumera 700 and Artevo 800
The use of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) has become commonplace across a range of ophthalmic procedures in the vitreoretinal space. Wide-ranging eye disorders, including epiretinal membrane, macular oedema, posterior hyaloidal traction, and retinal detachment can all benefit from access to detailed real time OCT images. This technology supports more informed decision-making, empowering surgeons to approach these complex procedures with a greater level of confidence.
The Zeiss Lumera 700 and Artevo 800 ophthalmic microscopes boast features such as automatic XY tracking (which compensates for movement of the eye or microscope) and ‘integrated retina protection’ making the use of iOCT simpler and more intuitive.
