MRQ YAG + SLT Laser Coaxial Illumination - Meridian

Latest technology Nd:YAG + SLT laser

SUPERIOR QUALITY & LONGEVITY

In collaboration with Dr Fankhauser, Meridian launched the first commercial Nd:YAG laser in 1982. The MR Q SLT has built-in DNA, the Microruptor II legacy, synonymous with innovation, reliability, and efficacy.  

Meridian Medical MR Q SLT combines a powerful Nd:YAG with SLT photoregeneration and provides the possibility to couple with Meridian photocoagulators. Meridian Medical carefully selects the best European components and technology to assemble its lasers. The MR Q SLT housing is made of a high-grade aluminium monobloc that gives unique solid feeling and dust-free electronics. 

USABILITY

The MR Q SLT features a powerful dual laser module with a Nd:YAG laser combined with an accurate SLT photoregenerator. Featuring a 7” touch display control panel. Placed on either side of the table, users can easily see the laser parameters and select between the laser mode, burst and offset options. The V-split mirror tower (optional feature) allows coaxial Nd:YAG treatments. This tower enables a red reflex that results in retro illumination of the posterior capsule, ideal for premium IOL treatments.

The laser head and slit lamp knobs are ergonomically placed on each side of the slit lamp. The MR Q SLT has proven to be effective in treating open-angle glaucoma as primary therapy.

SAFETY

MR Q SLT has built-in features assuring better treatments, safer laser offset and quicker response. The digital anterior and posterior offset allows the user to visualize where the laser focus is and provides a clear warning when the anterior offset is selected, minimizing user error.

The control panel requires double confirmation to safely swap between laser modes and the screen changes colour for a visual queue. The electronically controlled offset resets to posterior 100 μm after the laser enters on Stand-by; this unique feature minimizes the risk of shooting at the wrong position, avoiding the risk of lens pitting. The red reflex resulting from the retro illumination of the posterior capsule optimizes the on-axis capsulotomy. This feature allows seamless evaluation of the capsulotomy edges’ integrity, shape, and position in relation to the premium multifocal IOL rings, with a higher degree of success and increasing patient satisfaction.

FLEXIBILITY & COMFORT

The MR Q SLT features a twin-column table with a large tabletop. This presentation eases patients’ access in wheelchairs and offers perfect working space for the treating doctor.

The unique chinrest design ensures a comfortable, relaxed, and ergonomic position for the patient during treatment while the user has unobstructed access to the patient. The slit lamp offers an optional tonometer post to use the unit as a diagnostic device.
