Performing Intravitreal Anti-VEGF Injections in Ambulatory Settings Under Operating Room-Standard Conditions
Operio is a mobile, focused laminar flow unit designed to create a sterile environment in ambulatory or outpatient clinic rooms—comparable to that of a conventional operating room. It enables the safe performance of intravitreal injections, ensuring optimal protection for both the surgeon and the patient.
Thanks to Operio, intravitreal injections can now be carried out in any outpatient or ambulatory room with an exceptionally high level of asepsis—previously only achievable in costly operating theatres. This solution significantly reduces costs, making each procedure more economically viable for the healthcare facility while maintaining the highest hygiene standards.
Operio delivers cleanroom-grade air directly over the surgical site and instrument table without obstructing the procedure. It requires only a standard 230 V power supply, making it highly cost-effective and ready for immediate use.
This advanced technology continuously generates sterile air, removing airborne particles and microorganisms from the critical area. Air is drawn from the surrounding environment, filtered through HEPA filters (eliminating 99.99% of bacteria and microorganisms), and directed as a focused laminar flow over the surgical field. This targeted airflow reduces the bacterial load on the surgical site and instruments by up to 95%, significantly increasing patient safety and minimizing infection risks for healthcare staff.
