The FemtoMatrix^® will be the first ophthalmic surgical suite to possess a unique set of technological capabilities that translate to a level of performance far ahead of the current standard:

• Photonic technology allows, for the first time ever, to shape the laser beam by adjusting the wavefront that can be dynamically programmed in 3D to obtain a matrix of spots or spots of varying shapes depending on the type of cut you opt to perform.

• Access to a multispot matrix or variable geometry spots permits FemtoMatrix® to perform cuts at much higher speeds than the current standard resulting in Photoemulsification®. The surgeon then simply aspirates the finely diced nucleus without resorting to ultrasound in the vast majority of cases.

• An intelligent and autonomous OCT image-based system that calculates the ideal energy level necessary for safe and effective emulsification, drastically reducing the amount of gas produced.
• Revolutionary optics to compensate for potential aberrations that otherwise degrade the quality of the laser beam.
• An optical fiber in which, for the first time in the world, the femtosecond laser beam is injected resulting in substantial mobility of the optical head.
• The resulting mobility combined with the robotic arm allows the surgeon to operate the FemtoMatrix® without moving the patient, for unequaled comfort and precision.

FemtoMatrix^® will be able to perform completely programmable surgery with almost no human intervention – starting with corneal incisions, a capsulotomy, full Photoemulsification® of the nucleus and relaxing incisions for the correction of astigmatism. The surgeon will make extensive use of the system’s I/A fluidics and, in the most challenging cases, can use the built-in phacoemulsification module.

INDICATIONS:

FemtoMatrix Intended medical purpose: The intended use of the FemtoMatrix®, used with an FMC-Docking Kit, is to treat cataracts using photonic technology.

A cataract procedure performed on the FemtoMatrix® system may involve anterior capsulotomy, phacofragmentation (PhotoEmulsification®) and clear corneal incisions.

FMC-Docking Kit Intended medical purpose: The intended use of the FMC-Docking Kit, used with the FemtoMatrix®, is to immobilize the patient’s eye and to offset or neutralize the optical power of the cornea so that the FemtoMatrix® laser may function as intended during the procedure.

Intended users : The medical users are ophthalmic surgeons properly trained for the use of FemtoMatrix®system and FMC-Docking Kit.

Contraindications: Contraindications for FemtoMatrix® surgery include the following:

• A corneal ring and/or inlay implant(s)
• A corneal transplant
• Severe corneal opacities, corneal abnormalities, significant corneal edema, diminished aqueous clarity that can obscure OCT imaging of the anterior lens capsule
• Descementocele with impending corneal rupture
• Medical or ocular comorbidity making surgery with femtolaser unreasonably risky
• Pediatric use is not permitted.

All patients must be made aware of the aforementioned contraindications.

ATTENTION: Refer to the FemtoMatrix® and FMC-Docking kit User’s Manuals for a complete listing of indications, warnings and precautions.
