The FEMTO models create smooth corneal intrastromal pockets for inlays. The femtosecond laser additionally allows for accurate pocket parameters, and thus enhances predictability of the outcome.
OCT visualization for more precise positioning (e.g. with pre-existing LASIK flaps)
Customization
The depth and the pocket dimensions, as well as the entry incision size can be customized to best fit the patient's surgery plan
For example the intrastromal pocket can be placed just below the Bowman's membrane or much deeper in the cornea where there is less keratocyte activity
Centration
With the FEMTO LDV Z Models, the intrastromal pocket can be precisely centered on the monitor for more predictability in the outcome
Visualization after docking
The pocket incisions can be easily viewed and adjusted on the TopView image, even after docking
Additionally, the OCT system of the FEMTO Z8 allows to visualize previous flaps and to accordingly adapt the pocket depth on the monitor if necessary
