CLASS™ by IOPtima Better & Safer Glaucoma Surgery Are you diagnosed with Glaucoma? Would you like to maintain your sight? Are you tired of applying medications? If yes is the answer, then you are a perfect candidate for a CLASS procedure

IOPtiMate – a first CLASS for your Glaucoma treatment Glaucoma is caused by an increase in pressure within the eye as a result of blockage of the flow of the intraocular fluid (also known as aqueous humor). Blockage of the aqueous humor flow causes increased pressure that if unrelieved causes vision impairment. CLASS™ by IOPtima Better & Safer Glaucoma Surgery IOPtima’s Solution IOPtima Ltd. has developed the IOPtiMate, a unique, minimally invasive CO 2 laser-assisted system for the treatment of Glaucoma. In utilizing the particular properties of the CO 2 laser, CLASS procedure thins the white part of the eye (the sclera wall) by ablating surges at the natural drainage area (the Schlemm’s Canal) without penetrating into the eye. The use of the CO 2 laser facilitates adequate, functional percolation of intra-ocular fluid from the eye through the remaining membrane in a simple, highly controlled and specific manner.

Normal Vision Glaucoma Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders characterized by progressive loss of nerve tissue, often leading to blindness. It is the second leading cause of vision loss in the world. As is the case with most eye diseases, the elderly are most affected by Glaucoma with incidence of the disease growing as age advances. Don’t lose sight of those precious moments in life

“The system transforms complex and highly risky glaucoma surgery into a safe, elegant and precise laser-assisted procedure.” Prof. Ehud Assia, MD CLASS™ by IOPtima Better & Safer Glaucoma Surgery  Safe, minimally-invasive laser procedure  Unlike other surgical solutions, the CLASS procedure is non- penetrating and doesn’t involve foreign bodies  Low post-operation complications rate  CLASS procedure reduced complication rates in comparison with other current surgical solutions  Significant long-term reduction of IOP, stable over time  One-time procedure reduces the need for medications Consult your eye physician for a first CLASS laser treatment for Glaucoma or visit us at
