Lumenis Novus Spectra

Passion for ophthalmic lasers that dates back more than 40 years!

At Lumenis, we truly understand photocoagulation technology; that is after all only one of the privileges reserved for the company that pioneered the first argon laser photocoagulator for ophthalmology. It is also precisely the reason why many of ophthalmologists around the globe have actively chosen to purchase Lumenis photocoagulators for the past 40 years – making Lumenis one of the global market leaders.

Novus Spectra

Premier, high-powered, photocoagulator

The Lumenis Novus Spectra is an innovative photocoagulator with an extensive set of features that deliver power and reliability with proprietary advancements in diode-pumped solid-state technology. Next-generation DPSS technology drives 2.5 W of power from the compact Novus Spectra system and an active resonator temperature control ensures stable beam output and system reliability. Versatile, efficient and compatible with a wide-array of delivery devices, the dual-port Novus Spectra was designed to provide optimal results in the operating room and outpatient clinic.

SureSpot Optics

Sharply defined and evenly distributed power on the retina; Safe & low-power density at the cornea and the lens

As with all Lumenis photocoagulators, the Novus Spectra incorporates SureSpot Optics technology in all slit lamp adapters. The unique and patented SureSpot optics technology from Lumenis ensures that the focal point of the laser beam is maintained on the retina while power density on the cornea and lens is minimized for increased safety. SureSpot optics also creates a true 50-micron laser spot; that capability distinguishes the Lumenis technology from other lasers that may have a 100-micron minimum spot size and/or project a fuzzy laser spot on the retina. In essence, SureSpot optics improves treatment efficacy and precision while reducing the potential for damage to anteriorsegment tissues. The latter occurrence is especially a concern when using wide-angle lenses that enhance light uptake by the cornea and lens.

Novus Spectra for the OR

Ergonomic & Compact OR Cart: with built-in storage for accessories
Remote control: conveniently adjust laser parameters
Dual Fiber Port: switch instantly between endo-probe and LIO
PowerEase Footswitch: hands-free power adjustment

LIO: Choose a multicolor Laser Indirect Ophthalmoscope that suits your preferences. Both our Heine and Keeler models are rugged, lightweight and equipped with the most advanced laser delivery technology in the market.

Endo Probes: A comprehensive and wide selection of ophthalmic endo probes to meet every clinical need and indication. These include standard, straight, curved, aspirating, illuminating and stepped in 20, 23 and 25 gauge sizes, among others.

Endo Kit: Surgical microscope eye safety filter with the Lumenis patented ClearView technology. The photopic balanced coating eliminates color distortion of the treatment site while optimizing white light transmission or “brightness” of the physician’s view.

PowerEase Footswitch: The Lumenis PowerEase footswitch provides hands-free power adjustment of the laser by toggling left or right within the footswitch housing.

Novus Spectra for the Clinic

Compatible with your preferred Slit Lamp
Compact, lightweight and space-saving
Patented SureSpot Optics
Designed for the busy practice with high patient throughput

PowerEase Footswitch: The Lumenis PowerEase footswitch provides hands-free power adjustment of the laser by toggling left or right within the footswitch housing.

LaserLinks: The Lumenis family of LaserLink Slit Lamp adapters will transform most commercially available slit lamps into advanced laser delivery devices with superior optics capabilities.

Eye Safety Filters: a selection of automatic and fixed eye safety filters for the Slit Lamp with the Lumenis patented ClearView technology. The photopic balanced coating eliminates color distortion of the treatment site while optimizing white light transmission or “brightness” of the physician’s view.

The Novus Spectra Advantage

Superior Optics: Homogeneous laser spot at target tissue – Our advanced optics and laser delivery technology features uniform energy distribution across the entire laser spot area for more precise and safer treatment. The result is a homogenous laser spot with evenly distributed power across the full diameter of the spot, eliminating the potential risk for the formation of “hot spots”.
Dual Fiber Port: Instantly switch between delivery devices – Dependability is of crucial importance in both the OR and Office settings. Changing delivery devices is fast and easy. The Novus Spectra automatically senses the delivery devices connected to it. Laser parameters are adjusted internally to compensate for the chosen delivery device to maintain selected power density on the target tissue.
ClearView Filters: Optimized view of treatment site – The Lumenis ClearView filters’ photopic balanced coating eliminates color distortion of the treatment site while optimizing white light transmission or “brightness” of the physician’s view. A proprietary coating protects the filter from environmental changes and scratches.
User-Friendly: Control Panel & Remote Keypad – A control panel and illuminated remote keypad put all operations literally at your fingertips. Adjusting parameters is always within easy and comfortable reach. Conveniently position the remote control on either side of the slit lamp, or in a sterile cover for the operating room. The Lumenis PowerEase footswitch provides hands-free power adjustment of the laser by toggling left or right within the footswitch housing. The Lumenis Smart footswitch contains an integrated proximity sensor which inserts and removes the physician eye safety filter at the moment you slide your foot in and out of the footswitch housing.
