The FEMTO LDV Z8 Femtosecond Surgical Laser is an ophthalmic femtosecond laser, designed for precise tissue ablation and incision in corneal and cataract surgeries. It employs ultra-short laser pulses to perform minimally invasive procedures, including corneal flap creation, lens fragmentation, and capsulotomy, enhancing surgical accuracy and reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.

This device is supplied as a reusable, non-sterile system intended for use in a sterile surgical environment, typically within an operating room. It features an articulated arm for flexible positioning and integration with existing surgical setups, requiring no patient relocation during procedures. Authorized under FDA 510(k) and MDR compliance, the FEMTO LDV Z8 operates under the regulatory classification of Class II (Ophthalmic Laser, Product Code OOE) and adheres to 21 CFR 886.4390.

Frequently asked questions

What types of ophthalmic surgeries is the FEMTO LDV Z8 Femtosecond Surgical Laser primarily used for?

The FEMTO LDV Z8 is designed for minimally invasive corneal and cataract surgeries, specifically for precise tissue ablation. It is used to create corneal flaps, fragment lenses, and perform capsulotomies, which helps improve surgical accuracy and reduce trauma to surrounding tissues.

Is the FEMTO LDV Z8 Femtosecond Surgical Laser a single-use or reusable device, and how is it prepared for use?

The FEMTO LDV Z8 is a reusable system that is intentionally supplied in a non-sterile state. It must be sterilized and prepared in a sterile surgical environment, such as an operating room, before use. The articulated arm design allows for flexible integration with existing surgical setups without requiring patient relocation.

What regulatory pathways has the FEMTO LDV Z8 Femtosecond Surgical Laser followed, and what classification does it hold?

The FEMTO LDV Z8 has been authorized under both the FDA 510(k) pathway and the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR). It is classified as a Class II device under the FDA’s Product Code OOE (Ophthalmic Laser) and adheres to 21 CFR 886.4390, ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory standards for ophthalmic lasers.

How does the FEMTO LDV Z8 Femtosecond Surgical Laser integrate with existing surgical setups in the operating room?

The device features an articulated arm, which allows for flexible positioning and seamless integration with current surgical environments. This design eliminates the need for patient relocation during procedures, enhancing workflow efficiency and adaptability in the operating room.

What is the primary advantage of using ultra-short laser pulses in procedures performed with the FEMTO LDV Z8?

Ultra-short laser pulses enable the FEMTO LDV Z8 to perform highly precise tissue ablation with minimal thermal damage to surrounding structures. This precision reduces trauma, improves surgical outcomes, and supports techniques like corneal flap creation and lens fragmentation in cataract surgery.
