There is a range of lenses for any surgical needs requiring specific, enhanced visualisation in the posterior of the eye. A 30o prism provides a clearer view of posterior peripheral fundus/vitreous beyond equator in phakic, aphakic and pseudophakic eyes. www.vitreq.com   CE MARK Eyenuk Inc., developer of advanced retinal image analysis solutions to identify eye disease, has announced receipt of the CE Mark and the launch of the second generation of its EyeArt fully automated diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening software. The company plans to roll out EyeArt 2.0 to selected, leading eye care centres in Europe over the next few months, said a company spokesman. The commercial launch is supported by a new study of the EyeArt 2.0 technology, which demonstrated 98.3 per cent sensitivity in identifying potentially treatable patients with severe non-proliferative or proliferative DR, and/or the presence of surrogate markers for CSME. www.eyenuk.com
