Harlow, UK – 25th September 2020 - Haag-Streit UK (HS-UK), the leading manufacturer and distributor of gold-standard optometry and ophthalmic equipment, is pleased to announce the launch of the Meridian MR Q and MR Q supine YAG lasers in the UK.

The MR Q is a fully-integrated YAG laser, which features the latest technology for posterior capsulotomy, pupillary membranectomy and iridotomy.

The laser boasts outstanding usability, featuring a rapid start-up time and an easy-to-use touch-screen display. The user can choose between anterior and posterior offset on one screen, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow. The analogue rotary knobs, such as laser power and aiming beam brightness, are located on both sides of the laser head to provide a comfortable working position for left and right-handed users.

Additionally, Haag-Streit UK is delighted to introduce the MR Q supine, a fully-integrated ophthalmic laser for supine use, designed for capsulotomy and iridotomy. This is the only laser system on the market which allows the treatment of patients who are unable to sit at a slit lamp and is ideal for paediatric and elderly patients.

The MR Q supine laser features an LCD display with simple navigation between selection buttons. Control buttons change and monitor system information and an authentication pin code is in place for safety. The ergonomic 0-210° inclinable Haag-Streit Surgical binoculars allow comfortable operation.

Jacqui Kenyon, HS-UK Laser Product Manager, said, “These fantastic lasers offer the user superior quality, combined with longevity and outstanding usability. We are excited to add the MR Q and MR Q supine to the HS-UK gold-standard product portfolio.”
