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.

Versatile corneal, anterior segment imaging technologies improve accuracy
Explore Article OSN Supersite (Aug 25 2010)
An eclectic array of anterior segment testing and measurement technologies enable cataract and refractive surgeons to accurately assess anatomic features to optimize clinical and visual outcomes. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography, very high-frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy and Scheimpflug photography help surgeons assess corneal thickness and topography, anterior chamber depth and axial length, and iris and ciliary body status. Used alone or in combination, these modalities also help surgeons manage complications. (Read Full Article)
