Market Launch of single-use Amon Forceps Needle in the USA
The innovative Amon Forceps Needle sets new standards in precision and handling. We are therefore proud of the successful market launch in the USA and look forward to the upcoming CE certification. This unique instrument opens up several new possibilities in minimally invasive ophthalmic procedures. It combines a 27G hollow needle with an integrated 27G forceps that can greatly simplify surgical manoevers.
The Amon Forceps Needle is designed for multiple ophthalmic procedures, including scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs), suturing, and foreign body removal, enhancing surgical efficiency and versatility. As part of our UnoColorline forceps and scissors range it also contributes to sustainability – whereas the delicate tip is single-use, the handle remains reusable.
The broad Range of Applications in a nutshell:
- Scleral fixation of multiple IOL designs with different techniques as described by Yamane, Canabrava, Scharioth
- Iris fixation of IOLs
- Fixation of capsular tension rings
- Fixation of capsular segments
- Gore-Tex and Prolene sutures
Success of the EasyGas Campaign
EasyGas has convinced ophthalmic surgeons worldwide with its ease-of-use and maximum safety thanks to precise mixing ratios. With the help of our successful EasyGas campaign on LinkedIn, we were able to reach more ophthalmologists internationally and convince them of the benefits of EasyGas. The paid campaign achieved almost 260,000 impressions on LinkedIn and generated strong engagement with the target group. We were also able to give out well over 100 product samples directly to ophthalmologists at the ESCRS and EURETINA 2024.
European surgeons (subject to CE certified instruments) can still order a free sample.
Looking Forward to 2025
Brief Selection of our Goals for 2025
By moving our production departments to a much larger building in Heidelberg, we strongly commit ourselves to growth and quality made in Germany.
We are working hard on receiving CE certification for our Vivos phaco machine, so surgeons can finally benefit from its impressive features in clinical use.
We will introduce new suturing materials to regain Onatec cutomers.
With competitive prices of our NanoEdge knives and trephines we want to increase sales volume.
The cross-selling potential of our complete DMEK portfolio and good reputation of our glass cartridge will further increase our market share.
We will heavily promote our highly purified liquids and gases because Fluoron’s facilities are now capable of producing higher volumes.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
We wish you and your team as well as your beloved ones a peaceful Christmas season, relaxing holidays and a successful and happy new year.
