Bausch + Lomb Introduces New Surgical Planning Software for Eyetelligence Platform

Bausch + Lomb introduced new surgical planning software for the Eyetelligence platform designed to streamline surgical planning, information flow, and enable electronic medical record (EMR) and diagnostic device integration.

"In 2018, Bausch + Lomb launched Eyetelligence to help surgeons work smarter and more efficiently using cloud-based technology. Building upon that vision, this new software allows surgeons to simplify the complex and time-consuming surgical planning process,” Luc Bonnefoy, president, Global Surgical, Bausch + Lomb, said in a company news release. “This is the first of many software releases planned as we continue to refine and expand upon the platform’s capabilities to meet the ever-evolving needs of doctors, clinics and their patients.”

The new Eyetelligence surgical planning software is designed to deliver a seamless, secure flow of information from the office to the operating room, ensuring surgeons can manage data and personalize their approach to each case digitally without the need for multiple documents, sources, and folders. This connection across all aspects of the procedure is aimed to help avoid lost data and time. Surgeons will also be able to work with various EMR and diagnostic platforms, eliminating the need to purchase specific equipment or train staff on new technologies.

The Eyetelligence surgical planning software will offer both a surgeon-focused app and a nursing-focused app. These apps provide access to critical, timely data related to the patient and procedure, while enhancing communication and helping to improve workflow, according to Bausch + Lomb. 

The Eyetelligence platform also includes software to connect to Bausch + Lomb’s Stellaris Elite Vision Enhancement System, storing data to aid in surgical procedure analytics. The platform also allows surgeons to access settings on all their Stellaris Elite machines and provides fast access to remote technical support.
