Automatic Fluence Level Adjustment (AFLA)
With the Automatic Fluence Level Adjustment (AFLA), the SCHWIND AMARIS product family achieves perfect smoothing of the cornea even at the highest ablation speed. Researchers at SCHWIND have developed an algorithm that ensures an ideally balanced ratio between the total number of laser pulses and the energy delivered. About 80 percent of the ablation is performed with a high fluence value. For the fine modelling – the remaining 20 percent – AFLA automatically switches to a lower fluence. The result is optimum smoothing of the cornea. Through the extremely small beam size and Super-Gaussian beam profile, you achieve an exceptionally smooth ablation.
Intelligent Thermal Effect Control (ITEC)
Intelligent Thermal Effect Control (ITEC) is the name of the thermal control process that prevents damage to the surrounding corneal tissue, even at the very high ablation speeds of the SCHWIND AMARIS product family. ITEC ensures that the laser pulses are distributed in a thermally optimised, dynamically adapted way, which gives the individual position on the cornea sufficient time to cool off. The following pulses can therefore approach an already cooled position faster. ITEC is clearly superior to the usual static processes. Studies using an infrared thermographic camera have proven that the corneal tissue only heats up minimally, even at high ablation speeds.
6D eye tracking
Treatment success is enhanced by SCHWIND’s proprietary active 6D eye tracker which enables a unique level of precision. It is linked to the SCHWIND diagnostic systems and captures all eye motion (static as well as dynamic) during the procedure, for outstanding outcomes. During the procedure, it precisely determines and compensates for the following eye movement dimensions: X-axis - Y-axis - Horizontal rolling - Vertical rolling Eye rotation around the visual axis: static and dynamic cyclotorsion - Z-axis: active compensation for upward and downward movements
Particle-free Climatic Conditions
The unique particle aspiration system of the AMARIS provides for stable environmental conditions over the cornea — independent of any air movement in the operating room. The result of SCHWIND's comprehensive flow analysis is that energy-reducing particles are removed during ablation with the aid of directed airflow. Also available is an optional 2-axis slit lamp with interchangeable masks for detailed inspection of the cornea.
Integrated Fast UV Corneal Cross Linking
All laser systems in the SCHWIND AMARIS product family offer the option of integrating an innovative UV lamp, the SCHWIND CXL-365 vario system. This enables you to carry out corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) easily and conveniently at the workplace of your laser system. The precise X/Y adjustment of the patient bed makes it very easy to position the patient. The SCHWIND CXL-365 vario system features three power settings and a continuously adjustable aperture. The highest power setting enables deep crosslinking within five minutes, and the UV beam can be positioned precisely on the cornea. The display shows you the remaining treatment time. Integration of the SCHWIND CXL-365 vario into the SCHWIND AMARIS product family represents another ground-breaking development, which delivers high efficiency and ease of operation for you. For your patients it means gentle and safe treatment
Swivelling Delivery Arm
The optical delivery path of the Amaris is evacuated to eliminate contamination of the optical components and negate the need for nitrogen to flush the beam path. The delivery arms of the 750S and 1050RS are also designed to electrically swivel. This aids with patient entry when the Amaris is coupled with a Femto Second Laser. The patient bed also swivels up to 90 degrees with the option of motorised translation. The Amaris can be coupled with most modern Femto Second Lasers if required.
