Other Features/Comments:
The CB
single use is an improved version of
one of the most popular microker-
atomes on the market. With a new
head for each patient, the surgeon and
the technician never handle the blade.
This translates into excellent repro-
ducibility and smoothness during flap
creation and significant ease of use.

Other Features/Comments:
With a
compact and flexible design, the M2
sets a new standard for consistency,
smoothness and simplicity.
Consistent flaps of uniform thickness,
smooth stromal beds and accurate
customization of flap and hinge para-
meters are hallmarks of this powerful
new microkeratome.

Safety Features:
No handling of the
blade; individualized microkeratomes,
no damage from handling; completely
sterile system; visual check of suction
integrity; autoclavable turbine;
advanced safety and warning features
on Evolution 2 console; back-up pumps
on Evolution 2 console; no oscillation
during reverse direction; short vacuum
time; safe vacuum (gradual build up,
slow vacuum release); low vacuum,
vacuum pedal separate from footswitch
Cost:
Varies depending on configura-
tion. Base list price: $75
What's Included:
1-year warranty
Other Features/Comments:
The main
advantage of the ONE Use is the abili-
ty to use a new, presterilized micro-
keratome with each patient. Lack of
handling translates into superb blade
quality, outstanding smoothness and
excellent reproducibility. A translucent
compact suction ring allows unprece-
dented visibility. Elimination of micro-
keratome sterilization offers improved
economics and patient throughput.
