The new platform is expected to provide enhanced visualisation to ophthalmic surgeons compared to optical, hybrid and retrofitted microscopes.
Joe Gordon, Bausch and Lomb surgical and vision care global consumer president, said: “As part of our broader mission, Bausch and Lomb aims to provide ophthalmic surgeons around the world with innovative visualisation and intraoperative diagnostic technologies that enhance the surgical experience to ultimately help deliver better patient outcomes.”
SeeLuma comes with a heads-up 3D monitor as well as multiple digital display options that allow surgeons to operate ergonomically.
Surgeons can conduct 3D heads-up surgery using next-generation 3D 55” and 31” 4K monitors and unique digital binoculars. The C-shaped suspension arm allows surgeons to view the surgical monitor straight ahead of them.
