Outstanding Patient Outcomes - the numbers speak for themselves:

Reference: Awwad, Shady, Visual outcome with CLEAR Lenticule Extraction, Supplement to CRST Global, January/February 2023.

Eagle Eye Vision

CLEAR goes beyond 20/20 vision, with 45% of patients reaching 20/16 or better just one month post-op1. This outcome is supported by an excellent post-op aberrometry profile1. These results highlight the advanced precision of CLEAR, offering patients potentially sharper, more refined visual clarity.

Seamless Experience

CLEAR allows re-centering under active vacuum for seamless adjustments during the procedure. The built-in automatic cyclotorsion compensation corrects eye misalignment and will soon be fully automated with the GALILEI. The system ensures a comfortable experience for both surgeon and patient, with no suction loss or bulky equipment overhead.

Simplified Surgery

CLEAR’s intuitive design significantly simplifies the surgical process, making it easier for surgeons to master lenticule extraction techniques. The inclusion of guiding tunnels allows for more straightforward access to both the anterior and posterior planes2, shortening the learning curve for surgeons. This streamlined approach also helps reduce complication rates in lenticule extraction procedures.1,2

The FEMTO Z8 NEO offers improved performance in LASIK and CATARACT surgery.

Low Energy Pioneer

Ziemer has long been a leader in low energy laser technology for over 20 years, and the CLEAR system exemplifies this expertise. By utilizing low energy, CLEAR ensures smoother lenticule dissection2 while significantly reducing the energy input required for the procedure. This pioneering approach minimizes potential tissue trauma, making the procedure gentler and less invasive for patients.
