FAQ

In a nutshell about the Faros anterior

Faros anterior is a surgical platform with a minimal footprint. It integrates cataract, glaucoma, and anterior vitreoretinal applications into a single system and is available as an anterior segment platform.

Faros anterior combines two pump systems, Peristaltic and SPEEP, in one platform. In ophthalmic surgery, this allows surgeons to select the fluidics principle that matches their preferred technique.

Faros anterior is designed for user-friendly operation and quick readiness. In ophthalmic surgery, this supports structured workflows and controlled handling for both the surgeon and OR personnel^*.
