The world's leading retinal specialists use 23 Gauge Vitrectomy in greater than 80% of total surgeries versus 20 Gauge or 25 Gauge.
Prof. Takashi Kitaoka, Nagasaki, Japan
'I have been using the D.O.R.C. 23 Gauge system since May 2005. At first the indication of 23 Gauge system was for macular diseases such as macular hole and epiretinal membrane cases. Now, I use it for many kinds of vitreoretinal diseases except for macular translocation cases and some cases of PVR. In Japan, the 23 Gauge system is getting to be the main stream of vitrectomy.'
