Alcon Constellation® Vision System

Abstract
Alcon Constellation® is the most widely used vitreo-retinal surgical systems in the world, providing up-to-date technology for vitreoretinal surgery. This system has many innovative features. These features provide the ability to use high-speed, small-diameter and dual pneumatic vitrectomy probe systems, to give the surgeon the chance to intervene in the forward and backward movement speeds of the guillotine, to control the intraocular pressure sensitively during the operation, to have an internal endolaser, and to automate the intraocular gas mixture at the desired rate. The aim of the vitrectomy surgeon is to bring the retinal tissue to a normal anatomical position by cleaning it from other tissues without creating an iatrogenic tear. The first and most important condition for the surgeon to fulfill this task and to minimize the tissue healing problems that may occurs after surgery is the safe, efficient and rapid removal of vitreous from the eye and retinal tissue. The Alcon Constellation® system is the most up-to-date vitreoretinal surgical device platform available today, enabling the vitreo-retinal surgeon to consistently achieve these goals.
