Stryker Launches Oculan Lighting Platform for Enhanced Surgical Visualization

What You Should Know:

– Stryker (NYSE:SYK), a global leader in medical technologies, unveiled the Oculan Lighting Platform, an innovative lighting solution designed to provide consistent, high-quality illumination, allowing surgeons to focus on delivering the highest standard of care.

– In today’s operating rooms, where precision and accuracy are critical, even the smallest challenges may impact surgical outcomes – factors which may impede a surgeon’s ability to see clearly and work efficiently.

Oculan Lighting Platform: Advancing Surgical Precision and Comfort

The Oculan Lighting Platform combines innovative technology with user-centric design to enhance surgical precision, efficiency, and comfort.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Fly Eye Technology: Proprietary optical architecture ensures even light distribution by eliminating dim areas caused by instruments, hands, or the surgeon’s head.
  • Consistent Illumination: Enhances optical efficiency and minimizes color ringing, delivering a clear and steady view during procedures.
  • Auto Lux and Microspot: Maintains uniform brightness and pure white light, even in deep cavities or small-incision surgeries.
  • SHD Mode: Reduces perceived red to improve contrast, tissue differentiation, and glare reduction from instruments, enhancing visual clarity.
  • Heat Minimization: Incorporates advanced heat dissipation for a cooler surgical environment, improving comfort during lengthy procedures.
  • Reduced Glare and Reflections: Minimizes eye strain, allowing surgeons to remain focused throughout the operation.

User-Friendly Design and Easy Integration

  • Ease of Adoption: Suspension modularity ensures compatibility with existing Stryker surgical lights, minimizing operating room downtime during installation.
  • Intuitive Controls: Multiple control points and customizable settings streamline workflows and reduce disruptions, empowering surgical teams to tailor lighting to their needs.

Built for Longevity
Engineered for long-term performance, the Oculan Lighting Platform emphasizes durability and functionality. It represents a leap forward in surgical lighting technology, supporting precision, comfort, and efficiency in demanding clinical environments.

“Clear visualization is one of the most critical aspects of surgical lighting,” said Dr. Shyamali Mallick Singhal, Chief Medical Officer of Apricity Health in California. “The ability to see clearly without shadows or dim spots is essential for precise work. The Oculan Lighting Platform excels in providing bright, even light in these hard-to-reach spaces, where surgeons need it most. Just as important are its enhanced contrast capabilities, which allow us to distinguish between different tissues and anatomical structures more easily, significantly improving our ability to identify critical details with greater accuracy and confidence. This level of visibility is essential for delivering safer, more efficient surgeries.”
