Surgeon presents early results of Schwind platform for lenticule extraction

Minimally invasive lenticule extraction with the new Schwind ATOS femtosecond laser leads to highly predictable refractive outcomes, good optical quality and slight overestimation of the amount of tissue removed.
“The company is aware of this overestimation, which is programmed on purpose at this early stage as a temporary safety feature,” Ivan Gabri, MD, said at the virtual European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons winter meeting.
The ATOS femtosecond platform has been used in his clinic since September 2020, and during this time, more than 200 lenticule extraction
