The most modern equipment for cataract surgery (cataract eye) arrived and is already working in Bourgas hospital.
It is the new world achievement of ophthalmic science in the field of cataract operations, unmatched to date.
The device is called Centurion / apparatus - eye robots/. It performs phacoemulsification. This is the newest method for removing cataracts. Using ultrasound clouding natural lens is broken up and removed from the eye and in its place put a new, artificial. The artificial lens ensures even better vision than the patient has had in his youth. All this is done under strict computer control with preset parameters.
The computer monitors the handset itself and intraocular pressure during the operation and control fluid in the eye. Bag with a special solution is placed in the machine, not hanging on a tripod as in older models. It pressed or leave to supply liquid quickly to the eye and removes dependence on gravity to move the liquid. So the surgeon can fully concentrate on the operation.
