The Ellex Ultra Q is the ophthalmic industry’s premier anterior segment laser.
It features an Ultra Gaussian beam profile and fast pulse rise time that create ultra-low energy optical breakdown (in air) of approximately 1.8mJ, in optimal conditions. Other photodisruptors, in comparison, typically achieve optical breakdown in air of 3 to 4mJ in optimal conditions.
This optimized laser energy enables posterior capsulotomy and peripheral iridotomy procedures to be performed at lower, safer power levels and results in less risk of lens pitting, more efficient tissue cutting with fewer shots and less cumulative energy delivered to the patient.
