Product overviewThe Blumenthal Suturelysis Lens (VBSL) from Volk Optical is an anterior laser lens engineered for precise laser removal of ocular surface sutures. Its tapered tip provides 2x–3x magnification of the suture, enabling accurate beam placement while minimising force applied to the cornea and improving patient comfort.
Key features- 2x–3x image magnification for enhanced suture visualization
- 0.50x–0.33x laser spot magnification to maintain control of laser delivery
- High magnification facilitates treatment of deep-seated sutures
- Tip design allows clear visualization through thick Tenon’s layer or subconjunctival hemorrhage
Indications / UsageDeveloped specifically for suturelysis (laser removal of ocular surface sutures). The lens reduces corneal contact force during procedures and allows clinicians to target sutures precisely, including those located beneath Tenon’s capsule or beneath localized hemorrhage.
