About Vivos 안과 수술 시스템

Vivos는 수술 워크스테이션을 임상적 열망과 함께 진화하는 플랫폼으로 재정의합니다. Core, Nova, Nova+의 세 가지 구성은 시스템 교체 없이 기능을 확장하며, 안과 수술 분야에서 유일무이한 업그레이드 아키텍처를 구현합니다. 사전 교육 없이 첫 사용 만족도 91.7퍼센트로 검증된 단일 인터페이스는 시술이 아닌 외과의사를 중심으로 설계된 디자인을 반영합니다. 조명이 들어오는 기구 연결부, 정제된 소재, 절제된 디테일은 이 장비에 차분하고 자신감 있는 존재감을 부여하며, 이 카테고리에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 시각적 소음에서 벗어나 있습니다.

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Vivos is the only ophthalmic surgery system that grows with clinical needs. Core for cataract. Nova adds vitrectomy. Plus adds laser. One platform. One interface. One training investment. Independent usability validation confirmed 92 percent user satisfaction among first time users. Illuminated connection sockets were rated positively by all study participants. Premium materials and restrained detailing give the device a likeable presence without the visual noise typical of the category.
Dimensions & Packaging: Display: 24 inch capacitive touchscreen. Vitrectomy: up to 40000 cuts per min. Vacuum: up to 700 mmHg, highest in category. Phacoemulsification: 53 kHz piezoelectric. IOP: active real-time (VIVOS Balance). Endolaser: 532 nm. Illumination: SOLEA LED, 16.9M colours, 2 ports, Retina Protection Mode. CE pending, submitted Feb 2026. ISO 13485 2016.

Production Technology: Medical-grade polycarbonate housing, antimicrobial surface coating rated for over 10,000 disinfection cycles. Piezoelectric phacoemulsification at 53 kHz with beveled-up probe geometry for optimised fluidics. Pneumatic vitrectomy probe up to 40,000 cuts/min. IEC 60601-1 compliant. Modular quick-change cassette - single or multi-patient - tool-free exchange. Compatible with older phaco handpieces, protecting prior investment. Individually assembled in Heidelberg. ISO 13485:2016, IEC 62366-1, IEC 60601-1, CE pending
Design Challenge: The central challenge was integrating six surgical functions, historically distributed across two to three separate devices, into a single platform without increasing cognitive load. Internally, decades of segmented product architecture and a 75-year heritage required rethinking established engineering logic. Externally, MDR regulations, IEC 62366 1 usability standards and strict OR hygiene constraints limited design freedom. Maintaining identical UX across Core, Nova and Plus while ensuring durability for thousands of cleaning cycles demanded systemic redesign rather than incremental improvement.
Research: Usability research was conducted. Objective: reduce cognitive load without limiting clinical capability. Methodology: iterative co-design workshops with surgeons, Geuder teams and engineering, followed by independent summative validation per IEC 62366-1. Data collection included usability testing and task-based evaluations. Participants: 13 first-time users at RWTH Aachen University, 2026. Results: 91.7% satisfaction, no unacceptable residual risks. Insights validated the workflow UI, surgeon profiles and illuminated sockets, contributing to greater efficiency, improved patient safety and long-term system adoption in clinical practice.
Inspiration: Ophthalmic surgery is precise. Why should its devices remain fragmented, complex and visually uninspiring. Anterior and posterior procedures require separate investments, training and ecosystems not because clinical need requires it but because no manufacturer redesigned the architecture around the surgeon. Geuder AG with seventy five years of ophthalmic expertise asked what if one platform could grow without hardware replacement. Validated by independent study and unique in its modular upgrade logic.
Project Duration: The project was developed in Heidelberg, Germany by Geuder AG. Development spanned multiple months with iterative design and engineering phases conducted in close collaboration with ophthalmic surgeons and operating room nursing staff. Summative usability validation was performed at RWTH Aachen University in early 2026. CE Mark application was submitted on 27 February 2026. Public market launch is scheduled for June 2026.
Operation Flow: Before each procedure, the surgeon selects a personal profile, preloading preferred settings and pedal sensitivity. A three-column touchscreen maps each surgical step as a visual sequence. Colour-coded modules allow instant identification in a darkened theatre. Illuminated sockets guide instrument connection by touch. The foot pedal, with individually adjustable actuation force, controls fluid flow and laser hands-free. Eye pressure is monitored and adjusted in real time.
