Lensar received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for five new application technologies for the Lensar laser system, according to a press release.
The five upgrades integrated into the Lensar laser system with Streamline include wireless integration with the Cassini corneal shape analyzer, iris registration, cataract density imaging, customized fragmentation patterns and arcuate incision planning, the release said.
The Streamline upgrades of cataract density imaging, customized fragmentation patterns and arcuate incision planning will be available to all Lensar users. The full Streamline suite will be available to those who use both the Lensar system and the Cassini corneal shape analyzer, the release said.
“The five distinct upgrades to the platform include innovative integration of functions unique to the Lensar laser system that, for the first time, allow surgeons to fully automate and customize critical planning and execution steps of refractive cataract surgery,” Nicholas T. Curtis, CEO of Lensar, said in the release.
