Retinal Ambulatory Surgery Center of New York, INC. had a fantastic evening hosting an Educational Dinner sponsored by Alcon Surgical on Thursday, June 27th. This event was perfect for Ophthalmologists wishing to learn about the Centurion Phaco with new Active Sentry Technology and Image-Guided Surgery. During the event, Senior Equipment Manager, Lee Sisco, provided valuable insights into the new Active Sentry Technology. The technology allows surgeons to operate at a more physiological IOP with excellent anterior chamber stability and surgical efficiency. Dr. Eric Rosenberg introduced Image Guided Surgery. This technology is great for remote planning with the Argos Biometer to ORA to minimize transcription error and reference images can be sent to your DMM (Digital Marker Microscope) for image guided surgery. Stay tuned for more educational opportunities and updates from RASC as we continue to advance the field of Ophthalmology!
