ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS
THE SPECTRUM OF INNOVATIVE RGB TECHNOLOGY
Intraocular illumination of the surgical field plays a fundamental role in vitreoretinal surgery.
It has an influence on the success and efficiency of a surgery
Light sources must meet three main characteristics:
• generate a color rendering that enables correct conclusions about the anatomy
• provide the necessary brightness
• provide a high level of safety for users and patients before, during and after use
NEW INSIGHTS THROUGH RGB LED
The Geuder SOLEA® light source not only meets essential requirements, but also offers
new application possibilities thanks to the new RGB technology.
MINIMIZING PHOTOTOXICITY
Despite numerous innovations, some problems in endoillumination of the eye have not yet been
solved in recent years. Harmful UV and IR rays arriving from outside are largely filtered by the
cornea and lens of the eye, but this natural protective barrier is bypassed during endoillumination.
ADVANTAGES OF STAND-ALONE MODE
A separate and independent light source has two decisive advantages over an integrated
overall solution with vitrectomy device:
• Acquisition costs are lower if product innovations and improvements are followed
independently of the long innovation cycles of the overall solutions
• In the event of a dysfunction, the entire surgical unit does not fail
