VisionBlue® anterior stain

Trusted for over 9 million cataract surgeries since launch. The only trypan blue stain for anterior use approved by the FDA. Now approved for staining of Descemet’s membrane and trabecular meshwork.

VisionBlue®: Trusted PURITY and PERFORMANCE

VisionBlue® is the only trypan blue stain for anterior use approved by the FDA
Highly purified trypan blue with lowest recorded levels of mono-azo dye – known for carcinogenic properties in medical use
High purification reduces the reported TASS risk from lower purity generic trypan blue use
Batch level HPLC testing and Certificate of Analysis provides purity assurance and traceability for every lot produced
Trusted for over 9 million cataract surgeries since launch

SEE THE DIFFERENCE

Assuring the complete, circular capsulorhexis required for a safe phaco-emulsification procedure
High success rates in performing anterior capsulotomy in cases of mature or brunescent cataracts
Enhanced contrast between the capsulorhexis rim, instrumentation and the adjacent nucleus
Reduced risk of radial capsule tears and helps ensure a stable intraocular lens platform
Effective and safe recovery of ‘lost’ capsulorhexis edge
Improved efficacy in performing capsulorhexis in cases of narrow pupil and pediatric cataracts
Improves visualization in cases of vitreous hemorrhage and hazy or scarred cornea

"My preferred staining approach in cataract surgery is to use VisionBlue®. ...I look for maximum purity in an ophthalmic staining liquid so that I can be confident that the injected vital dye will not damage the corneal endothelium."

Elena Barraquer

MD, President of the FUNDACIÓN ELENA BARRAQUER

"I greatly appreciate the staining performance of the dye for dense and complex cataract cases or where the capsulorrhexis is compromised. As an FDA approved stain, I also trust the purity of VisionBlue® and know I am minimizing any risk to endothelial cells."

"Over the last 12 years, I’ve never regretted using VisionBlue®, but I’ve certainly had cases where I’ve regretted NOT using it. It continues to be an essential component in my surgical toolbox."

Mitchell Weikert

Associate Professor, Baylor College of Medicine, USA

"I utilize the safest and most cutting edge cataract surgery technologies. Even with the latest microscope technology, VisionBlue® is a critical aid in the ophthalmologist’s armamentarium. VisionBlue® can turn the advanced white mature cataract into a routine case."
