Profitability and cash-flow are the hallmarks of any healthy business. With the necessary capital outlay and ongoing maintenance expenses associated with owning your own femtosecond laser for cataract surgery, it could take 23 procedures per month to achieve financial viability.
For some, making the capital expenditure to purchase femtosecond laser technology and hire a laser engineer is the right choice. For those who want another option, there is Sightpath Medical. MoFe, Sightpath’s mobile model will put you on the path to profit from your first surgical day, and well into the future.

A research team composed of scientists from the Philippines, United Kingdom, and the United States found that – compared to manual clear corneal incisions (CCI) – femtosecond laser-constructed incisions achieve better wound sealability, a quality that may reduce the risk of surgical complications.
Sightpath Medical will be at the ASCRS Annual Meeting in Boston, MA, May 15 – 19, 2020. Here at Sightpath, we believe eye care providers deserve access to affordable, state-of-the-art technologies and highly qualified certified technologists regardless of location.
