Surgery Center Q & A

What is the Retinal Ambulatory Surgery Center?

The Retinal Ambulatory Surgery Center of New York is a modern facility equipped with leading-edge technology. Dr. Cohen and his team use the most innovative systems and techniques to repair all forms of retinal and vitreous disorders. The latest technology in cataract surgery and glaucoma surgery are offered as well. 

CATALYS®  femtosecond laser

This ultrafast laser is the preferred method for removing cataracts. The CATALYS uses an image guidance system to map out the surface of your eye and identify safety zones. Using this information, your surgeon creates a customized treatment for your specific needs.

ORA™ optiwave refractive analysis

The ORA system is essential for precise measurement of the strength and placement of your intraocular lens (IOL) during cataract surgery. Before ORA, patients had to wait weeks to determine whether their surgical results were accurate.

Centurion® Vision System

The Centurion Vision System offers the latest technology in phacoemulsification, which is the most common type of cataract surgery. The Centurion system enhances surgical control and efficiency, leading to a smoother procedure and an improved outcome. 

Lumenis® Smart Selecta Trio™

This safe and effective laser system treats glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal disorders. The laser beam guidance technology ensures precise treatment of targeted tissue.
