Argos Verion Image-Guided System

Abstract

AbstractThe Argos Biometer with Image Guidance by Alcon is an integrated biometer that provides image guidance to the surgeons, after that all measurements are taken. The image guidance is provided by having hardware (Verion Digital Marker) to provide overlays in the operating room and at the Alcon LenSx Laser. The Verion Reference Unit receives the biometry information from the Argos Biometer; it is an integrated keratometer with image guidance capability at Alcon LenSx system and operating room. The Digital Marker presents advantages in correcting pre-existing astigmatism. It provides patient eye confirmation with automated consistency check of reference image from VERION Reference Unit; incision guide; capsulorhexis guide with online overlay of planned capsulorhexis position and radius on the microscope live image; centration and toric alignment guide and a finalization check with a combined overlay of the centration and toric alignment information on the microscope live image for a final IOL position check; and documentation with storage of reference and measurement data, surgery, and surgery image data.
