The Whitestar Signature PRO phacoemulsification system is now available in the U.S., according to a news release from Abbott Medical Optics.

The system incorporates on-demand fluidics and ultrasound efficiency as well as the Cataract Analysis and Settings Application to assist with surgical suite management by delivering performance metrics for the phacoemulsification procedure directly to an iPad device, according to the release.

This is Abbott’s second phacoemulsification system launched in the U.S. in 2015, with the first being the Compact Intuitiv System launched in April, the release said.
