Our system is made to redefine precision and speed. And it is growing with your needs. Navilas® 577s allows you to begin with essential navigated treatments and expand to advanced features – all within a unified hardware platform. This ensures long-term value and clinical versatility.
Fast panretinal photocoagulation
"I am very impressed with the Navilas 577s PRP. It feels ergonomic and straightforward - the system literally lets me paint the peripheral retina with uniform spots in a very short amount of time. It was very well tolerated by the patients, with only topical anesthesia. Navilas now has an industry leading PRP tool to complement its unrivalled and already well-known focal laser capability."
Great to establish new treatment paradigms
"For more than 5 years, we have been using the Navilas for treatment of a broad range of indications. The accuracy, planning and documentation provides unique tools to research the effectivity of laser treatment - especially in subthreshold modes. The safety of the navigation makes it a great device to establish new treatment paradigms."
Best fit with modern diagnostic imaging
"We introduced the Navilas system to help our physicians, to help our patients, to support our research, and to ensure the accuracy of our treatments. It really provides a superior laser which is keeping up with the more advanced technology of imaging systems that are available today.”
Safe tool for a broad range of indications
"Navilas provides all the digital functionality and safety to explore the optimal treatment strategies in a range of retinal indications, such as choroidal neovascularizations in sickle cell and non-responding wet AMD or even in the treatment of DME. It really is the tool we were dreaming for."
Effective CSCR treatment
“Navilas allows me to treat CSCR lesions with unprecedented reduction of collateral tissue damage. This is the prerequisite for long-term preservation of vision.“

Retina navigation with Navilas® 577s:
Core features and benefits
The following core features are available with any Navilas® 577s Pro configuration to benefit your clinical practice. The same hardware can be upgraded with software licenses to the advanced capabilities of the Navilas® 577s Prime configuration.
Navilas® 577s provides accurate laser delivery with widefield fundus overview, eye tracking and exclusion zones for better protection.
„In my clinical work, the precise and effective focal DME-treatment with Navilas® has become the most relevant companion to Anti-VEGF injections in reaching durable treatment outcomes and reducing patient burden.“
Marcus Kernt, MD, Munich, Germany

Navilas® 577s pre-positions the laser beam and allows treating patients faster with less pain and interruptions thanks to computer assisted lasering with flexible configuration of pulse durations (e.g. 20ms or 100ms).
“With the pre-planning feature of Navilas® we experienced a reduced time of the treatment and also a significantly reduced pain experience as compared to a conventional laser."

Navigated microsecond pulsing technology enables reproducible application of subthreshold treatments as invisible effects are tracked and digitally visualized.
“Navigation allows us to place a dense microsecond pulsing spots pattern close to the fovea and to effectively reduce subretinal fluid.”

Navilas® 577s supports treating more patients in less time through rapid laser delivery, enhanced patient collaboration, and efficient utilization of team resources throughout the clinic visit.
“Navilas@ 577s was a worthwhile investment also from the financial point of view as the system basically paid itself within the first year.”
Dr. Lars Freisberg, Tulsa Retina Consultants

Navilas® 577s comes with an anterior mode to manage open angle glaucoma patients with non-invasive Microsecond Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT). The anterior mode also allows for preparation of laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI).
“I think that patients can be treated more gently with this optional pre-treatment for LPI using Navilas®. With the YAG laser only, I would use considerably more laser power.”
Dr. Gregor Eberlein, Klinikum Augsburg, Germany
Upgrades for advanced application needs
Navilas® 577s is a next-generation laser platform designed to grow with your clinical needs. Its modular concept allows you to begin with essential navigation-guided treatments and expand to advanced features such as contact-free application, digital workflow integration, mutimodal reporting and digital training tools – all within a unified hardware platform.
With special objectives treat from the macula region up to the ora serrata without a contact lens on the eye. Optionally use infrared light which is less bright and painful for patients. This supports treatment of sensitive patients and is perceived as premium care. A non-contact procedure also allows for an enhanced working distance between patient and doctor.

External images like OCT thickness maps or angiographies can be imported and treatments can be planned on these external images overlaid on the Navilas® fundus image. This facilitates higher accuracy and precision, e.g. by precisely targeting edema areas or leakages. To further streamline workflows and save administrative time Navilas® offers a DICOM interface to easily transfer patient data and diagnostic images from your PACS system.

Navilas® 577s generates multimodal digital treatment reports for quality control.
Pictures and plans are permanently stored in the database and can be used for re-treatments. Reports document treatments for
referring doctors, patients and billing departments.

Navilas® has an integrated treatment simulation mode (deactivation of laser beam), which allows for safe training of less experienced users. Treatment plans can be reviewed before execution and live treatment can be observed on a big screen. For educational purposes, users can actively practice the best treatment approach in a simulated environment using Navigate App.

Navilas® makes expert knowledge available through remote access to the treatment screen (“Teleguidance”)
This supports distant learning from live treatments and expert guidance through remote access.
