C O M • 4 7 Help Glaucoma Patients and Add Revenue With This New Procedure Eye surgeons can deliver significant relief to glaucoma patients with the non-invasive Cyclo G6 laser system from Iridex. Surgeons position the probe against the sclera and deliver pulsed energy to the inside of the eye. The treatment shortens the ciliary muscle and creates other tissue changes, opening up outflow and reducing pressure by a third, which typically reduces the need for medications. Medicare pays (CPT 66170) $842 to ASCs and $1,535 to hospitals. The system features an intuitive, user-friendly console with a color LCD touchscreen. No-obligation, hands-on demos are available. For more information, call (888) 725-8115, visit www.iridex.com/cycloG6, use the enclosed reader service card or visit www.bigbookofsurgery.com. OMIDRIA™ (phenylephrine and ketorolac intraocular solution) 1% / 0.3% OMIDRIA is the first and only FDA-approved NSAID-containing product for intraocular use during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement and is indicated for maintaining pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis and reducing postoperative pain. How is OMIDRIA used during surgery? • Added preoperatively to irrigating solution, OMIDRIA is easy to integrate into routine operating procedures; • Continuous delivery of OMIDRIA in the irrigation solution provides steady-state concentrations of NSAID and phenylephrine at the site of surgery; • Preoperatively, add one 4-mL single-patient-use vial to 500 mL ophthalmic irrigating solution.
