Navilas® Clinical Applications

Navilas® functions are optimized for efficiency and effectiveness, providing lasting benefits for physician and patient alike. Navilas® is designed for treatment of diabetic macular edema, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, central serous chorioretinopathy, retinal tears and retinal detachments and other indications of use described in the user manual.

Diabetic Macular Edema

Studies on Navilas® treatment of clinically significant macular edema demonstrate a significant increase in accuracy and an overall reduction in re-treatment burden, e,g, reducing the required number of injections while maintaining visual acuity gains achieved by the anti-VEGF treatments. Kernt M et al. Clin Ophthalmol, 2012:289–296. & Kozak I et al. Ophthalmology2011;118(6):1119–1124.

Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

Navilas® delivers an advanced peripheral treatment by optimizing speed and comfort while maintaining medical efficacy. Navilas® offers selective, personalized therapy and rapid pattern delivery with flexible configuration of pulse durations (e.g. 20ms or 100ms).

Central Serous Chorioretinopathy

Due to its ability to overlay ICG angiographies and FA images for precise planning, in conjunction with the ability to perform subthreshold treatments, Navilas® provides an advanced treatment paradigm for central serous chorioretinopathy. Amoroso F et al. Eur J Ophthalmol, 2022;32(5):2810–2818.

Retinal Tears and Retinal Detachments

Navilas® 577s supports fast and complete treatment of retinal tears, retinal detachments and lattice degeneration in the far periphery through dedicated widefield objectives. For enhanced patient comfort, navigated laser can also be used for contact-free treatment in infrared mode. Somoskeoy T, Shah P. Eye, 2020;1–5. PubMed PMID: 32587386.
