At North Toronto Eye Surgical Centre, we integrate cutting-edge technology with exceptional care. Our state-of-the-art diagnostics tests and advanced cataract surgery technologies ensure precision, safety, and accuracy, delivering the best possible outcomes for our patients.
Advanced Cataract Surgery Technologies that aid in providing tailored cataract surgeries include:
CATALYS™ Precision Laser System
The CATALYS™ Femto Laser for bladeless cataract surgery offers unparalleled precision and dependability. This advanced technology employs 3D imaging to map the eye, allowing for highly accurate incisions and lens fragmentation. The result is a quicker recovery and improved surgical outcomes.
The CATALYS™ laser enhances the accuracy and consistency of cataract surgery, making it particularly beneficial for patients requiring astigmatism correction or opting for premium intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Although this advanced procedure is not covered by OHIP, it provides significant advantages in terms of precision and improved visual outcomes.
VERION™ Image Guided System
Verion Technology, a comprehensive surgical planning and guidance system that significantly enhances the precision and efficiency of cataract surgery. This advanced system integrates multiple components to deliver real-time data, precise measurements, and customized surgical plans tailored to each patient’s unique eye anatomy.
Key Benefits
The combination of real-time surgical guidance, personalized surgical plans and improved accuracy and precision from high-resolution imaging lead to improved visual outcomes. Ultimately, patients undergoing cataract surgery experience a greater peace of mind with greater satisfaction post-operatively with the use of Verion Technology.
Centurion® Vision System
Centurion® Vision System uses ultrasound energy to safely break up and remove cataracts. This advanced system adapts to changes during surgery, ensuring smoother and safer outcomes.
Key Benefits
Key Benefits
Enhanced Safety and Stability
The system features Active Fluidics™ technology, which maintains stable intraocular pressure (IOP) throughout the procedure. This reduces the risk of complications and enhances patient safety and comfort.
Efficient Cataract Removal
The Centurion® Vision System continuously monitors and adjusts to changes in the eye. Together with real-time adaptation and its advanced ultrasound technology, the system efficiently emulsifies and removes the cataract, minimizing the energy required and reducing potential stress to the eye.
Diagnostic Technologies that aid in providing customized cataract surgical plans include:
iTrace™ System for Comprehensive Eye Assessment, is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that integrates multiple tests to deliver precise measurements of your vision quality and detect any eye abnormalities.
The iTrace™ System combines wavefront aberrometry and corneal topography to provide a detailed analysis of both the corneal and internal optics of the eye. This dual approach allows us to pinpoint the exact source of visual concerns, whether they stem from the cornea or the lens.
By offering precise measurements and real-time data, iTrace™ enables to create personalized surgical plans that cater to each patient’s specific eye anatomy, ensuring optimal outcomes.
Lenstar 900 is a state-of-the-art biometry system that provides comprehensive measurements of your eye. The Lenstar 900 uses optical low coherence reflectometry to capture detailed measurements of the eye, including axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth. This comprehensive data is crucial for precise IOL selection and placement. With multiple integrated formulae, the Lenstar 900 ensures accurate IOL power calculations, even for complex cases.
This system’s precise and reliable measurements enhances overall visual outcomes for patients and streamlines pre-operative process for our surgical team to deliver high-quality care.
IOLMaster® is a biometry device that delivers precise and essential measurements for intraocular lens implantation. The IOLMaster® uses partial coherence interferometry to provide highly accurate measurements of the eye’s axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth. This precision is crucial for the meticulous planning of cataract surgery and selecting the appropriate IOL power and achieving the best visual results.
OPD-Scan III Refractive Power/ Corneal Analyzer is an advanced diagnostic tool that integrates multiple tests to provide detailed insights into your eye’s surface and visual acuity. This diagnostic helps us accurately diagnose conditions such as astigmatism and plan the best treatment for your unique needs.
The OPD-Scan III combines wavefront aberrometry, corneal topography, auto-refraction, auto-keratometry, and pupillometry into one device. This multi-functional approach allows for a thorough assessment of your eye’s refractive status and corneal health.
By providing detailed maps and measurements of the cornea and internal optics, the OPD-Scan III helps in identifying sources of visual concerns and enables us to create personalized treatment plans.
Pentacam® is an advanced diagnostic tool that captures detailed 3D images of the front part of your eye. This technology plays a crucial role in evaluating your suitability for laser vision correction, detecting keratoconus, and analyzing cataracts.
By providing detailed corneal measurements, the Pentacam® ensures accurate detection of corneal curvature, corneal thickness and integrity of the corneal structure.
This precise and reliable 3D imaging enhances surgical planning for optimal visual outcome for patients and streamlines pre-operative process for our surgical team to deliver personalized care.
Endothelial cell count with Specular Microscopy is a crucial test for detecting and monitoring the loss of endothelial cells in the cornea. This advanced diagnostic helps us determine risks to the cornea from cataract surgery or the necessity for corneal surgery, particularly for patients with Fuch’s Dystrophy.
The test provides a detailed analysis of the corneal endothelium, including cell density, size and shape. This information is vital for early diagnosing endothelial dysfunction and appropriate adjustments to cataract surgery planning as well as monitoring for making informed decisions about the timing of potential corneal surgery.
