Endothelial cell morphology is like a ‘canary in the coal mine’…a potential warning that the structural stability of the endothelium has been affected, possibly by surgical procedures, disease, trauma or contact lenses. Clinical Applications Glaucoma, cataract, & refractive surgery. Corneal disease management. Contact/specialty contact lens fittings. Routine eye care Clinical Benefits Visualize endothelial cells with 40x magnification compared to slit lamp bio-microscopy Identify pre-existing low density and dystrophies that may affect positive surgical outcomes Confirm recommended cell density/morphology for scleral/specialty contact lenses CellChek SL | XL Models Gently used devices come with 'same-as-new' warranty. Examples include trade show floor / demo units, clinical trial returns and trade-ins. Limited availability. Only available in the USA. Clinical Benefits Cataract Surgery and Premium IOLs Low endothelial cell counts and pre-existing dystrophies can markedly reduce the potential for positive surgical outcomes from an otherwise uneventful cataract surgery. Surgeons are finding these data points critical when recommending premium IOLs: verify and document pre-operatively that the cornea is not suspect to more likely post-op complications difficult to explain with the investment in premium IOLs. General Corneal Health Assessment Konan specular microscopy is an invaluable tool to screen for corneal diseases as such as Fuchs’ Dystrophy, keratoconus, other corneal dystrophies, and trauma. You won’t believe what you’ve been missing.
