  • Quick OR setup

The future of lens extraction in your hands

ZEISS MICOR 700 is designed to take lens extraction to a new level: the first hand-held lens removal device that operates ultrasound free. Innovative technology and design measures are used to minimize stress to surrounding eye structures during lens extraction. In addition, ZEISS MICOR 700 increases OR turnover efficiency due to the disposable plug-and-play system and the little set-up and sterilization effort required in between cases.

Gentle patient treatment

Crystalline lens extraction without ultrasound

ZEISS MICOR 700 stands for advanced and gentle lens extraction. The ZEISS NULEX (non-ultrasonic lens extraction) procedure generates less thermal stress in the eye during the lens removal than conventional phaco and minimizes the risk of thermal damage to ocular tissue.  Utilizing an asymmetric movement of the cutter tube allows MICOR to remove lens via cavitation-free oscillation.

Dr. Seth M. Pantanelli

I have surprised myself and what MICOR has been able to do for me, and for my patients. So, case times are faster, corneas are now clear. The staff loves it. The setup is easy.

Broadening the intraocular working space

A new patented blunt and rounded tip design

The ZEISS MICOR 700 tip is designed to be more sensitive in contact with the surrounding tissue than conventional phaco tips. Surveyed early adopter surgeons confirmed that the blunt and rounded tip contributes to a gentler behavior towards the surrounding tissue and increases the comfort zone for maneuvering of the capsular bag.

Dr. Sonya Yoo

When we look at the tips, [...] smooth and blunt. So, I find that very, very safe. The safety margin with this technology is great.

Dr. Sonia H. Yoo

Quick OR setup

Free of a console. Single-use front end, reusable back end

Always ready with a disposable "Plug-and-Play" system ensuring convenience and simplicity in the operating room: that is ZEISS MICOR 700. Each extractor comes in a sterile blister pack and only needs to be connected to the drive and plugged into a BSS source - then the surgery can begin. The fluidics system is fully disposable. ZEISS MICOR 700 thus enables a quick setup and breakdown in the OR. It is designed to reduce the sterilization effort compared to phaco devices using standard US handpieces. Surveyed staff reported that ZEISS MICOR 700 is intuitive to use and saves time over the whole surgical day.

Dr. Sonya Yoo

I am really impressed with this technology. I love that there is no foot pedal, I love that there is no machine. It really saves space in the O.R., it is quite efficient.

Dr. Sonia H. Yoo

High flexibility with a minimal footprint

Hand-held and finger-controlled design

ZEISS MICOR 700 is the first hand-held system that does not require a console or a foot pedal. It is designed for intuitive finger operation. Surgeons reported that MICOR reduces the necessary space consumption of the lens extraction technology to a new minimum. With the low initial investment of ZEISS MICOR 700, it has never been easier to embrace technology change.

    The ultrasound free technology of ZEISS MICOR 700 does not heat up the corneal surface as much as conventional phaco.1

  • Dr. Elizabeth Yeu

    I just did not think that there could be something even more disruptive. And on a level that does not utilize ultrasound. Everything that you need is right here. MICOR 700, one button does it all.

  • Dr. Neel R. Desai

    This is the most excited I've been about cataract surgery in a while. The corneas are crystal clear, wounds seal well, and the post-op day one wow factor is certainly improved over traditional phaco emulsification.
