TrueVision’s TruePlan® is now linked to Pentacam® AXL

BREAKING NEWS at the AAO in New Orleans

TrueVision’s TruePlan® is now linked to the OCULUS Pentacam® AXL and the IOLcompass Pro guidance system from Leica Microsystems to improve cataract surgery workflow.

CULUS is pleased to inform surgeons around the world that OCULUS has teamed up with TrueVision Systems and Leica Microsystems to provide for the best possible efficiency and precision in cataract surgery.

TrueVision Systems, Inc. is a world leader in digital visualization and augmented reality guidance for microsurgery. The TruePlan® surgical planning application for optimizing corneal incision guidance and IOL positioning during cataract surgery is now linked directly to the OCULUS Pentacam® AXL software.

The Pentacam® AXL enhances clinical applications while providing optical biometry for IOL power calculation along with the known smart software modules. The Pentacam® IOL Calculator with its standard IOL formulas as well as latest-generation formulas such as the Savini toric calculator and the Barrett formulas makes the OCULUS Pentacam® AXL any dedicated cataract surgeons dependable partner.

The main areas of clinical applications of the Pentacam® AXL with its combination of optical biometry and proven Scheimpflug technology are refractive surgery, premium cataract surgery, corneal cross linking (CXL) and optometry. Screening features such as the Belin/Ambrósio software for the detection of early ectatic changes for corneal refractive surgery have already made the Pentacam® an irreplaceable tool for numerous surgeons. The unique Pentacam Nucleous Staging (PNS) for minimizing the effective phaco time (EPT) and optimizing the grid pattern for Femto laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) supports high end cataract surgery.

All good things come in threes: Leica Microsystems develops and manufactures high-precision surgical microscopes that seamlessly integrate digital imaging technologies. The IOL guidance system IOLcompass Pro & 3D TrueGuide completes the winning trio of OCULUS, TrueVision and Leica for cataract surgeons who want the best outcome for their patients.
