Description
Capsular Tension Rings are indicated for the stabilization of weakened, broken, or missing zonules that are suspected or observed during cataract extraction using phacoemulsification and continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis techniques in adults.
The StabilEyes Capsular Tension Ring is proven to reduce cataract complications (both intraoperative and postoperative), reduce the rate of vitrectomy, reduce patient follow-up visits associated with vitrectomy, and reduce the risk of explanting decentered IOLs.
The tension ring is a compression-molded Perspex CQ PMMA ring, the same high-quality material as premium PMMA IOLs.
The tension ring has been approved in Europe since 1994 and over 100,000 capsular tension rings (CTRs) have been implanted.
The tension ring is an open, flexible ring design with eyelets at the open end of the ring to allow for rotation and manipulation in the bag.
The ring is available in two sizes: 12 mm / 10 mm for small eyes and 13 mm / 11 mm for large eyes.
Larger number is the ring diameter in uncompressed state (before insertion), smaller number is the ring diameter in compressed state (after insertion).
The StabilEyes Capsular Tension Ring is a system (ring + reusable inserter).
The ring is injected into the capsular bag (via the syringe-style Micro Inserter or forceps) to maintain the integrity of the bag during complicated cataract surgery.
The capsular tension ring enables you to safely ensure stability and promote centration when capsular bag stability is, or could be, compromised.
The tension rings, reduce luxation or decentration of the IOL, stabilize the capsule in case of defective or absent zonulae, stabilize the capsule in the case of high myopia, provide IOL centration in eyes with zonular dehiscence, stabilize the capsule during phacoemulsification surgery, and improve long-term IOL centration for multifunctional IOLs (multifocal, aspheric, etc.) after elective surgery.
When centration is key, multifocal and aspheric IOLs require excellent centration to deliver optimal optical performance.
StabilEyes Capsular Tension Rings have proven to provide the centration needed to maximize optical performance.
The StabilEyes Capsular Tension Ring is a complete, easy-to-learn system consisting of a ring and a syringe-style Micro Inserter.
Utilizing simple, familiar insertion instruments and processes, surgeons can expect controlled ring delivery and precise ring placement.
