Whether you’re seeking to perform capsulotomies for Presbyopic IOLs or peripheral iridotomies prior to the insertion of Phakic IOLs, it’s imperative that your treatment equipment delivers excellent results every day. UltraQ™ has been created by Ellex to ensure you achieve your goals.
Uniquely efficient
The industry’s most efficient and fastest microsurgical YAG laser, UltraQ's unique cavity design and custom power supply allow you to perform capsulotomy and iridotomy procedures at lower, more efficient power levels and with greater shot-to-shot consistency.
IOL-friendly photodisruption
Featuring an Ultra Gaussian beam profile, UltraQ™ focuses more energy into the center of the beam profile to deliver greater energy density — reducing the energy needed to effectively perform capsulotomy and iridotomy and greatly reducing the risk of lens pitting.
Capsulotomy for Presbyopic IOLs
With UltraQ's precision and ultra-low energy optical breakdown, you'll be able to create a perfectly centered, precise capsulotomy that will not affect the tension of the bag and the position of the IOL in the visual axis. It’s accuracy that minimizes fringes and tags and prevents lens damage — even if the lack of a ridge makes the capsule adhere to the optic.
Iridotomy for Phakic IOLs
UltraQ™ also enables you to perform precise iridotomy to prevent pupillary block prior to the insertion of refractive IOLs. The aperture must be large enough to ensure a balanced aqueous flow, without allowing light transmission back to the pupil. UltraQ's efficiency means that you can often achieve this outcome in a single shot, using lower energy than other YAG lasers.
