NGENUITY® 3D Visualization System
© 2018 Novartis 8/18 US-DAV-17-E-0877g(2)
CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician.
INDICATION: The NGENUITY® 3D Visualization System consists of a 3D stereoscopic, high-definition digital video camera and workstation to provide magnified stereoscopic images of objects during micro-surgery. It acts as an adjunct to the surgical microscope during surgery displaying real-time images or images from recordings.
WARNINGS: The system is not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anesthetics mixture with air or oxygen. There are no known contraindications for use of this device.
PRECAUTIONS: Do not touch any system component and the patient at the same time during a procedure to prevent electric shock. When operating in 3D, to ensure optimal image quality, use only approved passive-polarized glasses. Use of polarized prescription glasses will cause the 3D effect to be distorted. In case of emergency, keep the microscope oculars and mounting accessories in the cart top drawer. If there are any concerns regarding the continued safe use of the NGENUITY® 3D Visualization System, consider returning to using the microscope oculars.
ATTENTION: Refer to the User Manual for a complete list of appropriate uses, warnings and precautions.

CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician. As part of a properly maintained surgical environment, it is recommended that a backup IOL Injector be made available in the event the AutoSert® IOL Injector Handpiece does not perform as expected.
INDICATIONS FOR USE: The CONSTELLATION® Vision System is an ophthalmic microsurgical system that is indicated for both anterior segment (i.e., phacoemulsification and removal of cataracts) and posterior segment (i.e., vitreoretinal) ophthalmic surgery.
The ULTRAVIT® Vitrectomy Probe is indicated for vitreous cutting and aspiration, membrane cutting and aspiration, dissection of tissue and lens removal. The valved entry system is indicated for scleral incision, canulae for posterior instrument access and venting of valved cannulae. The infusion cannula is indicated for posterior segment infusion of liquid or gas.
The PUREPOINT® Laser is indicated for use in photocoagulation of both anterior and posterior segments of the eye including:
The FlexTip* laser probe is intended to be used with ALCON® 532nm laser systems.
The CONSTELLATION Vision System is also indicated for emulsification, separation, and removal of cataracts, the removal of residual cortical material and lens epithelial cells, vitreous aspiration and cutting associated with anterior vitrectomy, bipolar coagulation, and intra-ocular lens injection. The INTREPID® AutoSert® IOL Injector Handpiece is intended to deliver qualified AcrySof® intraocular lenses into the eye following cataract removal. The following system modalities additionally support the described indications:
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS:
ADVERSE EVENTS/COMPLICATIONS: Use of handpieces during intraocular procedures in the absence of irrigation flow and/or in the presence of reduced or lost aspiration flow can cause excessive heating and potential thermal injury to adjacent eye tissues.
ATTENTION: Please refer to the CONSTELLATION® Vision System Operators Manual for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions.

INDICATIONS FOR USE: The GRIESHABER® DSP Aspheric Macular Lens is used to visualize the fundus and retinal structures during vitreoretinal surgery. It is designed as a self-retaining contact lens to allow hands-free operation.
CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS: The device may be used only by well trained physicians and personnel. Potential risk from reuse or reprocessing include: reduced optical quality, surface damage on the optics, and foreign particle introduction to the eye. The surgeon’s team has to ensure that sufficient viscous fluid is available throughout usage of the lens for continuous humidification of the cornea. Attention: Reference the Directions for Use for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions.
CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician.
INDICATIONS FOR USE: GRIESHABER® DSP instruments are a line of single-use vitreoretinal micro-instruments which are used in ophthalmic surgery, for cases either in the anterior or the posterior segment. The GRIESHABER® Advanced Backflush Handles DSP are a family of instruments for fluid and gas handling in vitreoretinal surgery.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS: Potential risk from reuse or reprocessing GRIESHABER® DSP instruments include: foreign particle introduction to the eye; reduced cutting or grasping performance; path leaks or obstruction resulting in reduced fluidics performance. Verify correct tip attachment, function and tip actuation before placing it into the eye for surgery. For light fiber instruments: Minimize light intensity and duration of exposure to the retina to reduce risk of retinal photic injury. The light fiber instruments are designed for use with an ALCON® illumination source. Good clinical practice dictates the testing for adequate irrigation and aspiration flow prior to entering the eye. If stream of fluid is weak or absent, good fluidics response will be jeopardized. Use appropriate pressure supply to ensure a stable IOP. If unwanted tissue gets engaged to the aspiration port, it should be released by interrupting aspiration before moving the instrument.
ATTENTION: Please refer to the product labeling for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions.

CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician.
INDICATIONS FOR USE: The PUREPOINT® Laser is indicated for use in photocoagulation of both anterior and posterior segments of the eye including:
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Patients with a condition that prevents visualization of target tissue (cloudy cornea, or extreme haze of the aqueous humor of the anterior chamber of vitreous humor) are poor candidates for LIO delivered laser treatments.
Warnings and Precautions:
COMPLICATIONS: Corneal burns, inflammation, loss of best-corrected visual acuity, loss of visual field and transient elevations in intraocular pressure can occur as a result of ophthalmic laser treatment. Unintentional retinal burns can occur if excessive treatment beam power or duration is used.Attention: Reference the Directions for Use for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions.
