OD-OS to Showcase Navilas Navigated Retinal Laser Therapy at EURETINA

09/04/2019

OD-OS will share clinical experiences with the Navilas 577s digital treatment platform this week at the EURETINA Congress in Paris. Navigated retinal laser therapy with the Navilas 577s allows for panretinal photocoagulation with uniform spot distribution, which is faster and less painful for patients than PRP treatment with conventional slit-lamp lasers.1,2 While tissue-friendly subthreshold treatments with navigated laser are easy to control thanks to a unique confluent delivery method and digital documentation, according to OD-OS.

Users report on clinical outcomes of treatment with the Navilas 577s laser in the EURETINA Satellite Meeting on Friday, September 6, 2019 at 9:45 am in room 251 (https://navilas-euretina2019.eventbrite.de/?aff=pr). Hands-on experience with the platform can be gained at OD-OS booth Number 210.

“Our experience in everyday clinical practice shows that the treatment with Navilas is much faster and, based on this, reduces the number of laser sessions, so that we can cope better with the steadily growing number of patients. Our patients report less pain than with conventional lasers,” Prof. Albert Augustin, Städtisches Klinikum Karlsruhe, said in a company news release. “As therapists, we value, among other things, the targeted spot planning with defined spacing. This increases safety during focal treatments and supports secure closure of foramina even in the far periphery.”

“The all-digital Navilas 577s is the next generation platform after conventional slit-lamp lasers. Navilas brings the degree of digital control, comfort and transparency to retinal laser treatment that doctors are already used to from front-of-the-eye treatments. Thanks to Navilas unique imaging, tracking and navigation, doctors now can focus on the medical aspects of treating the retina with confidence,” Dr. Winfried Teiwes, Managing Director of OD-OS, said in the news release.
