HOW ZEPTO® WORKS
The ZEPTO® Precision Cataract Surgery platform is uniquely designed to automatically create a strong, symmetrical anterior capsulotomy precisely aligned on the visual axis.
ZEPTO® PROCEDURE WITH IKE AHMED, MD
INSERT
Handpiece tip is collapsed and inserted through a 2.2 mm or larger incision.
CENTER
Handpiece tip is recircularized and centered along the first Purkinje image. Advancing skill alignment with the fourth Purkinje facilitates even more precision. Suction, delivered from the ZEPTO® power console, brings the ZEPTO® tip with nitinol ring into apposition against the lens capsule.
CREATE
12 micropulses of energy are applied in 4 milliseconds, and a 5.2 mm mean diameter capsulotomy is formed. The device is removed through the main incision.
