The IOPtiMate™ CO2 Laser-Assisted Sclerectomy Surgery (CLASS) solution is the first and only minimally-invasive, laser assisted surgical alternative for long-term relief of intraocular pressure (IOP) for the treatment of Glaucoma.
The non-penetrating IOPtiMate™ surgical system is based on a CO2 laser that safely limits and controls sclera tissue ablation to successfully regenerate aqueous flow using nature’s own pathways – with no need to insert a shunt or other foreign drainage devices.
This unique method automatically halts sclera ablation when adequate percolation is achieved due to the system’s unique properties.
Keeping the eyeball intact significantly reduces the risk of intra-operative and postoperative complications and the complex follow-up interventions that are commonly associated with penetrating surgical alternatives.
