Yariv bar on: Chief Executive Officer at Orca Surgical
Orca Surgical develops pioneering solutions for refractive ophthalmologic surgery focused on the cornea. They are committed to innovating and bringing to market devices and technologies for refractive surgery, keratocounus, refractive enhancement, and treatments for recurrent erosions of the cornea. Their elegant devices and technologies are
uniquely designed to offer safer alternatives that deliver highly reproducible results.
The company’s flagship Epi Clear:tm: dynamic epikeratome device is ushering in a new paradigm for laser-assisted refractive surgery that is safer and less painful than existing microkeratome flap keratomileusis and advanced surface ablation procedures.
new EBK:tm: (Epi-Bowman's Keratectomy) procedure leaves Bowman's layer completely intact. The procedure is based on the company's Epi Clear:tm: patented multi-blade polymer epikeratome.
Epi Clear:tm: allows surgeons to softly sweep across the epithelium to gently and precisely peel the epithelial surface and simultaneously collect discarded epithelial cells into the tip for safe removal from the treatment bed. The result is a clean, smooth treatment bed for the excimer laser to ablate and reshape the cornea for refractive correction. The procedure generates ideal optical conditions for laser ablation with less painful healing, rapid visual recovery and reduced post-operative risks.
