ALCON ARGOS Biometer

At CCRS, your surgery is guided by advanced digital marker microscope technology from Alcon—a system designed to enhance precision at every step of your procedure. Using detailed pre-operative imaging, this technology creates a personalized surgical map of your eye. During surgery, that map is digitally overlaid in real time through the surgeon’s microscope, helping ensure exact alignment, optimal centration, and exceptional accuracy—especially for astigmatism correction and premium lens placement. This level of guidance goes far beyond traditional surgical microscopes, allowing your surgeon to operate with greater confidence, consistency, and control—all tailored specifically to your eye.

• Personalized, Eye-Specific Surgical Guidance: Each procedure is guided by a digital surgical map created from your eye’s unique anatomy. This personalized overlay helps ensure critical steps—such as lens positioning and alignment—are tailored specifically to your eye, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
• Exceptional Accuracy for Astigmatism & Premium Lens Alignment: The Argos Biometer boasts swift scanning speeds, vastly reducing patient chair time and enhancing clinical efficiency. This swift operation is less invasive and more comfortable for patients, making their experience in the clinic smoother and more efficient.
• Non-Contact Measurements: For patients receiving astigmatism-correcting or premium lenses, even small misalignments can impact vision quality. Digital marker technology provides real-time alignment guidance, helping maximize lens performance and visual clarity after surgery.
• Greater Precision Than Traditional Manual Markings: Unlike ink marks or visual landmarks that can shift or fade, digital guidance remains stable throughout surgery. This allows for more consistent, repeatable accuracy—especially important for advanced refractive and cataract procedures.
• Compensation for Natural Eye Movement During Surgery: The system continuously tracks eye orientation, helping maintain surgical accuracy even with subtle eye or head movement. This adds an extra layer of confidence and control during critical moments of the procedure.
• More Predictable Visual Outcomes: By combining advanced imaging, digital guidance, and surgeon expertise, this technology helps reduce variability and enhance consistency—leading to more reliable, predictable vision results for patients seeking the highest standard of care.
