Floaters can be challenging to live with or even be perceived as extremely bothersome. However, YAG laser vitreolysis treatment with the Ultra Q Reflex by Ellex offers an excellent option in selected cases.
Whitepaper
Read a whitepaper addressing the dual role of SLT as both a diagnostic aid and as a highly effective first-line treatment option.
This video interview Karl Brasse, MD, MRCOphth (Germany) addresses how Ellex's refined YAG laser technology can secure greater precision in capsulotomy treatment.
This whitepaper highlights the role of SLT across the glaucoma disease process, including its utility as a first-line treatment option.

The glaucoma medications used to control the IOP of refractive patients often add to the blurred vision experienced by these patients on a daily basis. This leaves the refractive surgeon with the frustrating task of correcting refractive error without being able to eliminate a key contributor to the problem.
SLT works by stimulating a natural healing response in the body to manage the elevated IOP associated with glaucoma, promoting cellular regeneration without the burn and scar tissue associated with other laser procedures.
Even in an era of highly advanced OCT imaging, ultrasound remains one of the most fundamental diagnostic tools in ophthalmology. In this interview, ultrasound expert Dr. Yale Fisher, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, Florida, addresses the fundamentals of ophthalmic ultrasound.
Watch the video with Andrzej Dmitriew, MD (Poland) to learn how detection of disorders like posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) in opaque ocular media is easily achieved with B-Scan ultrasound.
It is important to note that less energy is required when performing SLT on patients with a heavily pigmented trabeculum. In this case video, extensive mini-bubble formation is noted at the commencement of SLT treatment, indicating that the energy level is too high.
Hundreds of spot are placed in the retina to reduce the risk of vitreous hemorrhage and retinal detachment. Watch the video to learn more.
In this video, treatment is applied to the retinal periphery. A fast exposure time aided by a precise micromanipulator allows for quick, easy and precise placement over the entire periphery.
The fully integrated laser-slit lamp design of the IntegrePro™ channels the laser directly through the slit lamp optics, ensuring optimal illumination of the fundus, whilst the motorized safety filter ensures an accurate, color-balanced view. Watch the video to learn more.
When performing SLT on eyes with irregular pigmentation, always ensure that focus is maintained on the target tissue, and not on the laser beam spot.
