Problem and Solution Traditional vs. Mircropulse graphic from scarring to non-scarring Traditional Pre-treatment 1 Year Post-treatment Pre-treatment 1 Year Post-treatment Scarring non-existent with equivalent visual acuity results as traditional laser, plus increased retinal sensitivity, using MicroPulse laser therapy. Compare traditional laser treatments with IRIDEX’s Patented MicroPulse® technology Scarring clearly visible using traditional laser technology and continuous-wave laser treatment.

Slide 10

Clinical Evidence Safety Efficacy Efficiency Economics 10-year follow-up data proved no detectable retina damage. Control randomized trials showed improved vision and improved retinal sensitivity. More treatable patients. Improved patient pass-through rates. IQ 577™ and TxCell™ nearly paid for itself in less than a year. Using anti-VEGF and MicroPulse may reduce treatment burden and costs.
