About Carl Zeiss Meditec
Carl Zeiss Meditec. Ophthalmology Systems. Carl Zeiss Meditec is an integrated medical technology company with two main areas of business activity. In the field of ophthalmology we offer complete solutions for treating the four main eye ailments: vision defects (refraction), cataract, glaucoma and retinal disorders. Our products support doctors and patients to diagnose and treat these ailments efficiently and precisely, thus giving both of them clear benefits, not least by offering them a comprehensive disease management solution. The acquisition of Carl Zeiss Surgical has strengthened our leading market and competitive position for devices and systems in ophthalmic surgery. Furthermore, we have secured an outstanding starting position in the growth market of neuro/ENT surgery. As the world‘s leading provider of surgical microscopes and visualisation solutions for these treatments, we will further expand our footprint in this area through organic growth and strategic expansion into adjacent market segments. In doing so, we want to develop into a solution provider in this area as well. Carl Zeiss Meditec's medical technology portfolio is rounded off by innovative and promising future technologies such as intraoperative radiation therapy, which allows the targeted treatment of breast cancer and brain cancer during the operation stage itself.

Can preoperative anterior chamber angle width predict magnitude of intraocular pressure change after cataract surgery?
Explore Article NRC Research Press Publishing Services (Mar 13 2010) Ophthalmology
Objective: To determine whether preoperative anterior chamber angle width, captured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), can be a predictor of intraocular pressure (IOP) change following cataract surgery. Design: Prospective comparative observational study. Participants: Fifty-three eyes of 53 patients awaiting cataract surgery were included. Methods: Measurement of anterior chamber angle width and IOP using AS-OCT and Goldmann’s applanation tonometry, respectively, were performed before and 6 months after phacoemulsification and ...

Background To correlate the cross-sectional features of filtering blebs on anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) 2 weeks after trabeculectomy with bleb function at 6 months. Methods Forty-eight eyes followed for 6 months or more after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C were included. Bleb wall reflectivity of developing blebs on AS-OCT 2 weeks postoperatively was correlated with mature bleb function at 6-month postoperative visit. Results Developing bleb walls at 2 weeks were ...

Three patients with progressive visual loss, chronic alcoholism and tabagism were submitted to a complete neuro-ophthalmic examination and to retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) measurements using optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning. Two patients showed marked RNFL loss in the temporal sector of the optic disc. However, a third patient presented RNFL measurements within or above normal limits, based on the Stratus-OCT normative database. Such findings may be due to possible ...

Explore Article Indian Journal of Ophthalmology (IJO) (Feb 26 2010) Ophthalmology
The cross sectional optical coherence tomography images have an important role in evaluating retinal diseases. The reports generated by the Stratus fast macular thickness scan protocol are useful for both clinical and research purposes. The centerpoint thickness is an important outcome measure for many therapeutic trials related to macular disease. The data is susceptible to artifacts such as decentration and boundary line errors and could be potentially erroneous. An understanding ...
