The Ally Lensar laser is the first system to combine a femtosecond laser with phacoemulsification in a single device for cataract surgery, the ASC said in a June 14 news release. The two technologies are often used separately alongside each other during cataract surgery.
The Ally system can be used to remove cataracts and also correct vision problems like astigmatism. Together with specialized lenses, the technology can eliminate the need for glasses, including reading glasses and bifocals, after cataract surgery.
Around 10 million cataract surgeries are performed globally on an annual basis, according to the press release.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 18–20 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
