ESIRIS - future oriented Excimer laser system eminently suited for refractive surgery in the years to come. Integrated "ORK"-software for today's individual topography, corneal wavefront or aberrometry- guided "customized ablation". Clinical studies reveal outstanding results with regards to optimal correction of the eye and its surface quality.

ESIRIS - patient comfort and high system safety

Modern high-tech product - "engineered in Germany". The system offers high patient comfort and has important technical safety features:
optimal energy distribution on the cornea
low ablation depth
high corrections possible
reduced risk of postoperative haze with PRK
lowest thermal effects on the corneal tissue during ablation
individual ablation profile possible
extremely "shape-true" with wavefront guided ablations - ("treatment of higher orders")
a worldwide unique laser treatment with selective corneal wavefront data
hyperopic treatments with enhanced ablation zones up to 9mm possible
quick post-operative recovery of visual acuity and tissue healing due to the 0.8mm spot size
ESIRIS - achieves one of the smoothest ablation surfaces

200Hz ablation frequency
short treatment times while maintaining a high surface quality at the same time, and, the low roughness
extremely even energy distribution possible during the ablation process
this results in one of the smoothest ablation surfaces yet known
Precise 0.8mm scanning spot laser with perfect beam delivery control
highly precise 200Hz scanning spot 193nm ArF Excimer laser and the optimized beam delivery system make a beam diameter of 0.8mm possible - Gaussian profile.
ESIRIS - optimized centering of the eye - no suction- or tracking-ring necessary for the eye tracker

330Hz high speed eye tracking system
ESIRIS has one of the fastest active eye trackers worldwide, with dual infrared illumination system
safe and highly precise treatment results coupled with safe tracking of even the quickest eye movements (saccades of up to 250Hz are compensated for)
it is comforting for the patient that no additional suction rings or any other instruments for the eye tracker are used, which are necessary in other laser systems
ESIRIS does not put additional strain on the eye, i.e. as with suction and fixation
Additionally, the eye tracker offers the possibility to shift the centering point. This so-called "tracking offset" may aid especially with hyperopia treatments of nasally fixed patients

ESIRIS - optimized ergonomic design and handling comfort

Design

The elegant, consistent design, and the ergonomic order of the system components meet high customer demands for modern, high-tech equipment.

LASIK

29cm working distance between laser arm and patient eye. Ideal for LASIK with all commercial microkeratomes for professional LASIK.

Compact assembly

Only requires a small space 4.5 x 3m incl. patient bed.

Patient bed

elegant design for a relaxed, comfortable position - breathable, easy-care vinyl cover.
Central control (x-y-z) via near-by joystick (Optionally positioned to the right or left of the surgeon)
easy entry / exit for the patient integrated memory function (The patient bed may be moved automatically back and forth underneath the laser arm at the press of a button)
