“I was struck by how much quicker and less stressful marking the cornea is with the RoboMarker, eliminating several sources of error in axis determination. The device is ingenious and useful. One thing that impressed me at ASCRS in San Diego was that it remains necessary to have a back-up manual marking system no matter what high tech/high expense system one uses to mark axes, and the RoboMarker is a head above other systems.”

“Our ASC has been using the Robomarker for over a year and it has drastically improved our accuracy for the placement of toric lenses. Over the last year we have used this technology to greatly reduce our incidents of IOL repositions. The Robomarker is easy to use and the pendular weight system reduces the chance of error. At our surgery center the RNs mark the eye and we take the patient immediately over to a slit lamp to measure the marks. Since we are able to tell our surgeon the exact axis of our marks they are able to place the lens to give the patient the best possible results. We highly recommend the Surgilūm RoboMarker to all ophthalmic surgery centers.”

“RoboMarker is the most accurate way to mark for intended toric axis alignment prior to toric IOL and/or astigmatic corneal incision surgery due to its automatic cyclotorsion adjustment.”

“Having marked toric patients at the slit lamp for years, I thought I was doomed to personally making my quickly fading alignment marks forever. With RoboMarker, my surgical staff can quickly and accurately mark my patients while I am in the operating room. When the patient is under the microscope – the alignment marks are always sharp and accurate. My results – they are better than ever. Thank you Surgilūm.”

“When astigmatism correction is needed to make a difference in outcomes, the RoboMarker makes a difference in the axis alignment.”

“The RoboMarker™ is very easy to use in the pre-op area, and once marked, it makes aligning toric IOLs very easy.”

“I find the RoboMarker to be very accurate for in-office LRIs – For example, if the LRI is to be 30 degrees at axis 180, I set the RoboMarker at +15 degrees, mark, and then reset at 165 degrees and place second marks there. Then I can cut my LRIs exactly centered on my axis (180) and to the extent I want. It’s a great time saver.”

“With all of the new innovations in technology, it is not always easy choosing the right tools. The RoboMarker is an incredibly well-thought-out product; it is simple, yet refined and significantly minimizes error. I am thrilled to have added the RoboMarker to my arsenal of tools complimenting my astigmatism surgical plan.”

“Quick, easy, aligns regardless of how it is held.”

“The RoboMarker is advancement in the surgical planning of astigmatism correction. The intelligent balance takes the guesswork out of your alignment and is intuitive to use.”
