"I used an excimer laser with the iVis software for the first time in 2000 for a session at the NHS in Imola and I was impressed by the customised approach in all cases, definitely innovative for those years.
I had a second experience in 2005 at the Hospital in Reggio Emilia where I carried out some complex cases such as high myopia, astigmatism (with myopia, hyperopia and mixed) and hyperopia with optimum results that I followed up over time.
As at today, I am using the iVis Suite at Nuova Ricerca Clinic in Rimini and since 2011 at Ospedale Maggiore in Bologna.
I particularly appreciate the technology for complex cases such as corneal leucoma and the treatment of pterygium. I also had the opportunity to use the iVis Suite at the Eye Bank of Emilia Romagna for the creation of lamellas from endothelial keratoplasty with parallel faces whose results are very positive and being published shortly.
The technology by iVis is in my opinion particularly useful in all cases and particularly in the complex ones because it allows planning the treatment of each single case with the link of corneal tomography and pupillometry, on the other hand it gives important insights that help the surgeon to plan the ablation strategy."
Luca Avoni will participate in V Ivis Suite User Meeting in Oslo, from July, 4th to 6th, 2014 with the "Excimer laser in eye bank" report.
