The C-eye device is CE marked for the following indications: keratoconus, ectasia after LASIK/PRK, pellucid marginal degeneration, infectious keratitis, sterile corneal melting, bullous keratopathy. The C-eye is not available for sale in the United States.
EMAGine's C-eye device brings cross-linking technology to the slit lamp. Simple, efficient and safe from the novice to the expert user.
Perform CXL at the slit lamp. Or use the C-eye device just like any other CXL device: on a table mount, in your operating room.
Work in different places? Take the C-eye device wherever you go. Charge it via USB-C, with your smartphone charger, or your laptop.
Reduces time and costs related to performing CXL
The C-eye device will revolutionize cross-linking
All 221,000 ophthalmologists are united by one piece of equipment: the slit lamp. It defines our profession. The C-eye technology provides all these ophthalmologists the ability to perform CXL at the slit lamp. Without an operating room. Simple. Efficient. Safe.
Can I perform CXL in my office?
Remember that every cross-linking procedure not only improves biomechanics, it also “disinfects” the cornea by directly killing all micro-organisms and by inhibiting cellular replication. This is why a cornea at the end of every CXL and PACK-CXL procedure is “sterile”. And by the way: office-based cataract surgery and office-based intravitreal injections have been performed in many thousands of cases without increased infection risk.
Irradiation time is not too long. Current modern protocols are integrated in the C-eye device and treat in as little as 10 minutes (CXL) and 4 minutes (PACK-CXL). See the published approach here.
We need 3 elements for successful cross-linking: UV light, oxygen and riboflavin. Both UV light and oxygen do not “care” whether the patient is laying down or sitting. As for riboflavin, published research shows that riboflavin concentration is stable in the upright position for up to 60 minutes - much longer than we need for a CXL treatment.
Offer the patient the comfortable surgeon’s chair with the armrest and take the extra time to ensure that the patient is well-adjusted. Then, the patient is very comfortable.
Fixation is no issue. Offer the patient the fixation target that most slit lamps offer (for retinal examination) and the patient will keep a very steady fixation, as you can see here.
