Faros in vitreoretinal surgery
In vitrectomy, the ophthalmic machine Faros impresses thanks to its established fluidics concept *. Thanks to the lance-shaped blade, the Caliburn Trocar System has a high cutting force and consequently reduces the penetration force into the sclera 1. The pneumatically driven Continuous Flow Cutter is developed for low-traction work in the periphery and the Power LED light source is fitted with the latest technology.

Illumination
Illumination is of invaluable importance in eye surgery. The choice of the right light source is decisive for achieving high-quality transscleral and intraocular illumination and simultaneously preventing phototoxic impacts and damages to the eye.

Vitreous body removal
A vitreous body removal ought to be performed in cases of diseases of the retina or the vitreous body, inflammations within the eye, or severe vitreous opacities. By removing the vitreous and replacing it with aqueous fluid or replacement fluid, seeing can be improved again. Oertli uses fluidics based on physics to support an efficient vitreous body removal.

Injection/extraction
You need to have optimum control of the infusion pressure for both injection and extraction. Faros offers the surgeon a three-way-stop-cock that can easily be controlled at any time. In regard to injection/extraction, Oertli has made great use of the advantages of physics and fluidics and has brought about consistent safety and superb user-friendliness.

Bipolar diathermy
Diathermy is used in manifold ways in vitreoretinal surgery and can be used to stop bleedings. Thanks to the cleverly thought out technology, Oertli surgical platforms have paved the way for extremely fine and directly controllable dosing of high-frequency energy. Therefore, applications of bipolar technology can be performed even more precisely and safely.
