Hansatome Microkeratome
The microkeratome is the instrument that creates the corneal flap during LASIK surgery. Early microkeratomes created very small flaps between 7-7.5mm and had several components requiring significant maintenance and assembly. The Hansatome microkeratome is a new type of microkeratome, with only three major components. This allows the creation of large flaps that are 8.5-9.5mm in size and vertically oriented, ensuring a large ablation zone for better results. The microkeratome suction ring also produces a gradual suction for maximal comfort.
