ZEISS has announced that it has received 510(K) clearance from the FDA for the CLARUS® 700, High-Definition, Ultra-Widefield Imaging system for advanced care specialists. “CLARUS 700 is the first high-resolution ultra-widefield imaging with True colour and a complete range of fundus imaging modalities, including fluorescein angiography (FA),” said a ZEISS spokesman “Ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography helps eye care specialists identify earlier more severe forms of diabetic retinopathy like neovascularisation and retinal diseases such as uveitis, choroidal  masses, retinal tears, detachments and peripheral ischemia. “The high-resolution and high-contrast images of the FA from the CLARUS 700 allow clinicians to capture the smallest details from the macula in early phase to the periphery in late phase of FA,” according to Zeiss.   www.zeiss.com/meditec
