Description
The all in one cataract planning platform
Spectacle independence is the goal of cataract surgery today, the Lenstar LS 900 Biometer provides all the data and state-of-the-art IOL formulae required to achieve this!
LENSTAR LS 900
An excellent choice for all IOL types in any anatomy
Lenstar provides highly accurate laser optic measurements for every section of the eye −from the cornea to the retina− and is the first optical biometer on the market that can measure the thickness of the crystalline lens. With its integrated Olsen formula and the optional Toric Planner featuring the Barrett Toric Calculator, Lenstar provides the user with latest technology in IOL prediction for any patient.
ALL AT ONCE
Access to full eye data in a single click
In a single measurement scan using optical low coherence reflectometry (OLCR), Lenstar captures axial dimensions of all of the human eye’s optical structures. Lenstar also measures corneal curvature, white-to-white and more.
Complete optical biometry for better outcomes
Precise measurement of the entire eye − from cornea to retina − is key to achieving optimal IOL prediction accuracy in surgery.
Lenstar is the first optical biometer to provide the surgeon with all the measurements necessary to take full advantage of the latest IOL prediction methods, such as the Barrett and Olsen formulae, now integral to Lenstar.
MEASUREMENTS
Thirty-two points of difference
LENSTAR® provides you with a complete biometrical assessment of the patient’s eye—seven measurements—in a single procedure, including:
- Paychymetry
- Lens Thickness
- Keratometry
- Pupillometry
- Axial Length
- ACD
- White to White
Get an in-depth looks at these measurements.
Central Corneal Thickness
Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) is measured using optical coherence technology, leading to unmatched accuracy and precision. Reproducibility of this measurement is as good as ± 2 microns, providing one of the base parameters for possible laser correction of the cataract surgery. Measuring CCT along with the other measurements takes less than 30 seconds, which will help increase patient flow.
Anterior Chamber Depth
Just like other length measurements, ACD is assessed with optical coherence technology (OLCR). Combined with the CCT measurement, LENSTAR® provides you with the anatomical (= Aqueous Depth = AD) as well as ACD, as measured by ultrasound biometers. LENSTAR offers repeatable precision compared to slit lamp technology.
Lens Thickness (LT)
Modern multivariable IOL calculation formulae use the patient’s lens thickness as an input parameter. LENSTAR® provides the measurement of true lens thickness on the visual optical line of the patient using optical coherence technology (OLCR). No estimation or additional ultrasound measurement is required to get this important parameter. Lens thickness is one of the most important measurements of the Lenstar system.
Axial Length (AL)
Optical coherence technology using a superluminescent diode as light source allows the measurement of the axial length of the patient’s eye on the visual optical line in highest precision and through dense cataracts. Axial Length is a major component in two important formulas used in the LENSTAR measurements.
Keratometry
A 32 marker pattern ensures precise assessment of the corneal curvature. The distribution of the marker on two concentric circles allows stable measurements even with non-compliant patients. The Keratometry measurement exemplifies the superiority of the LENSTAR system by providing expanded Keratometry information. LENSTAR uses 32 measurement points placed on two concentric rings of 16 points each at 1.65mm and 2.3mm.
White-to-White
For sulcus fixated IOLs and for the calculation of the IOL power using the Holladay II formula, LENSTAR® measures white to white distance (horizontal Iris width). The White to White measurement is gathered automatically form optical biometry. White to White is integral when implanting sulcus fixated ICLs. LENSTAR reduces “chair-time” by obtaining the white to white measurement instantly with the other measurements.
Pupillometry
The software allows for measurement of the patient’s pupil diameter in ambient light condition. By measuring it instantly, LENSTAR saves you time. Pupillometry is an important addition to your data.
Retinal Thickness (RT)
An easy-to-use manual selection of the retinal peaks in the A-scan enables the user to measure RT (distance between the ILM and the RPE) and to calculate IOL based on the individual RT. A typical value for the RT is automatically displayed and employed for IOL calculation. LENSTAR delivers results comparable to existing ultrasound and optical biometers.
Special Eye Conditions
All of the measurements described here are available for measuring the “normal” cataract patient as well as for aphakic, pseudoaphakic and silicone oil filled eye conditions. In case of an error, you may even change the selected eye condition after completion of the procedure. The eccentricity of the visual optical line is assessed with respect to white-to-white as well as to the pupil center. Both are important parameters for laser refractive procedures.
PERFECT K’S
Perfect K values = best toric results
Lenstar features dual-zone keratometry or T-Cone topography for precise astigmatism and axis measurement. The integrated Barrett Toric Calculator predicts toric IOL, taking into account the posterior cornea for best refractive outcomes.
Improved outcomes with dual zone keratometry
Lenstar’s unique dual zone keratometry provides measurement of the axis and astigmatism, equivalent to the “Gold Standard” manual keratometry recommended for toric IOL by manufacturers.
The closely spaced 32 measurement point pattern improves precision, both delivering more data and minimizing the need for software data interpolation.
Topography for torics – match the axis
With the optional T-Cone toric platform, the axis and astigmatism measurement of Lenstar is extended with true 11-ring Placido topography. This additional data improves the efficacy and safety of toric IOL surgery, eliminating the risk of irregularities and allowing the user to double check the axis location.
The Barrett Toric Calculator provides the user with one of the best toric IOL predictions available on the market. The toric calculator features dynamic calculation of the lens position for cylinder power transformation to the corneal plane as well as consideration of the anterior and the posterior corneal curvature for cylinder power and axis calculation.
ADVANCED IOL PLANNING
Improved refractive outcomes with any patient
EyeSuite IOL provides a comprehensive set of premium IOL calculation formulae for standard cataract patients as well as for patients with a history of keratorefractive surgery. The optional Toric Planner complements IOL planning with an intuitive tool for toric interventions.
Predictable outcomes
Modern multivariable formulae such as Barret and Olsen, integrated in EyeSuite IOL, provide predictable outcomes in any patient, independent of anatomic particularities. Using measurements of all compartments of the eye, these formulae allow for the prediction of the IOL positon and subsequently the IOL power with improved accuracy in short, normal and long eyes.
Master post refractive cases
EyeSuite IOL provides the user with a set of premium IOL calculation formulae for post-keratorefractive patients with or without known clinical history. Barrett True-K, Shammas No-History, and the Masket formulae have proven their efficacy in several peer-reviewed studies and may be regarded as best-in-class.
