This YAG photodisruptor was designed to replace the Alcon 2500 YAG and offers the advantage of lower energy levels and extremely fast firing, reducing the risk of IOL pitting. With a firing rate of up to 3 hertz,, it is the industry's fastest photodisruptor. The Ultra Q also features a custom-designed laser cavity tested to deliver an exceptional life span, as well as a fine, two-point focusing system that provides a precision level other photodisruptors simply cannot achieve.

The newest IOL materials are often more sensitive to laser energy, which poses new challenges when performing capsulotomy treatments. The Ultra Q incorporates Ellex's most refined YAG laser technology, which produces an Ultra Gaussian treatment beam and enables consistent optical breakdown at ultra-low energy. This, in turn, results in less risk of lens pitting, more efficient tissue cutting with fewer shots, less cumulative energy delivered and faster procedures.
