Anterior Vitrectomy Function
The
Stellaris® PC
Vision Enhancement System supports a pneumatic vitrectomy cutter, which uses pressurized
air to drive the guillotine-type vitrectomy cutter. The Advanced Vacuum system provides aspiration to draw the
vitreous material into the port, where it is then cut and aspirated through the flexible tubing into the disposable
collection container.
Anterior Vitrectomy Cutter Modes
The Advanced Vacuum System provides two vitrectomy cutter modes:
Fixed Cut
Pneumatic cutter: The control may be adjusted to provide a fixed cutting speed from 30 to 5000 cuts per minute.
Dual Linear Cut
Pneumatic cutter: The control may be adjusted to provide a linear cutting speed from 30 to 5000 cuts per
minute. The footpedal yaw is used to achieve dual linear function.
The cut rate may be adjusted from 30 to 5000 cpm, with increments as shown in the table below, or to any
specific value using the keypad.

injury.
