The proprietary SPEEP pump combines the advantages of peristaltic and venturi pump systems, allowing independent control of both flow and vacuum. Surgeons can precisely regulate aspiration and holding force directly through the foot pedal, improving control during fragment manipulation and challenging cases such as floppy iris syndrome or zonular weakness.
-
easyPhaco technology enables precise and efficient phacoemulsification with strong fragment followability and excellent chamber stability. The advanced fluidics system, optimized tip design, and six Piezo crystal handpiece allow targeted ultrasound energy delivery with reduced heat generation and efficient aspiration without fragment repulsion.
-
The Faros supports HFDS for minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). Using high-frequency diathermy, the HFDS tip creates small sclerotomy pockets within the iridocorneal angle to improve aqueous outflow by bypassing trabecular meshwork resistance through Schlemm’s canal access.
-
The robust dual-linear foot pedal provides responsive and customizable surgical control. Auxiliary buttons can be configured for various functions including pump switching, illumination adjustments, air control, and bottle height settings to support surgeon workflow preferences.
-
The Faros platform is engineered around optimized fluidics and physics principles to enhance chamber stability, aspiration efficiency, and surgical precision. The advanced fluidics system is a key component supporting the platform’s performance across cataract and vitreoretinal procedures.
-
The Faros is designed for efficient operation with a rapid startup time of approximately seven seconds. Instrument connections are easily accessible from the front of the unit, while the clear display layout and logical controls support intuitive use for both surgeons and OR staff. Surgeon-specific settings can be stored for up to 50 users.
-
The integrated Power LED light source delivers bright, homogeneous illumination with up to 45% greater light output than previous generations. The wide illumination control range also supports compatibility with modern 3D microscope systems and low-light surgical environments.
-
The Faros supports both active gas-driven infusion and gravity infusion systems for stable intraocular pressure management during surgery. Active infusion provides rapid pressure response up to 120 mmHg when required, while gravity infusion offers a reliable and economical alternative compatible with standard Oertli tubing systems.
