Sterile air for ophthalmic surgery operation theater.

Operio mobile laminar air flow creates cleanroom conditions for intravitreal injections and cataract surgery.

Operio generates on the instruments and in the operating field aseptic conditions that is up to 100 times higher than in a conventional operating room for eye surgery. Sterile air is an indispensable requirement of an ophthalmic operation theatre (OT). Unsterile air has been believed to be a major cause of outbreaks of post-surgical infections.

The ISO 5 certification ensures that all ophthalmic interventions, from the simplest cataract to a transplantation, can be performed with operio sterile laminar air flow  under the most demanding standards of biosafety and comfort.

Operio mobile laminar air flow system is a very cost-effective system to obtain Cleanroom conditions for ophthalmic surgery without any construction work. Sterile air is an indispensable requirement for the smooth functioning of an ophthalmic operation theatre (OT). Unsterile air has been believed to be a major cause of outbreaks of post-surgical infections.

Operio can be easily wheeled and quickly set up, turning any room into a cleanroom with sterile conditions like an ultramodern operating theatre.

Operio is an ISO 5 class device; The Operio HEPA filters trap 99.97% of particulate of size 0.3 micron (μ). They achieve this by various mechanisms like direct impaction, sieving, interception and diffusion. Most microbes are in range of 0.5 to 5 μ in size. Operio provides  unidirectional air flow towards OT table and instruments .  The sterile air flow is directly directed to the instruments and the surgical field without any obstacles such as the surgical microscope or the surgical team and hence creates an extreme high level of asepsis which was so far hardly obtainable.
