Delivering a Self-Sealing Cannula
The stainless steel Cannula is complete with a self-sealing cap, eliminating the need for plugs. Stainless steel construction provides low insertion force and prevents collapse or separation. The self-sealing cap is designed with a beveled cup for easy insertion of 25 Gauge instruments.

The MID Labs 25 Gauge System is designed to precisely complement the surgeon's skills while substantially reducing the time required for routine procedures.
AVE (Adaptable Vit Enhancer)

Adaptable Vit Enhancer, MID Labs Top of the Page
With the Adaptable Advantage
The AVE offers almost all vitrectomy system users a sophisticated, yet inexpensive upgrade path to high-speed vitreous cutting. It will work with virtually any surgical system that has a vitreous cutter drive source, either pneumatic or electrical.

MID Labs Offers
The AVE provides the means of operating a MID Labs DuraProbe Vitrector at up to 2500 cuts per minute. The AVE is a self- contained console with an internal compressor. It utilizes proprietary pulse waveform shaping technology (U.S. Patent 6,575,990) to drive the performance-matched vitreous cutter.

High Speed Cutting up to 2500 Cuts/Min
The pressure required by the DuraProbe Vitrector is one half that of the most popular pneumatic vitrectors. Lower pressure results in less power introduced into the cutter, allowing for finer control, quieter operation and less vibration over the entire cutting range.
Vit Enhancer

Vit Enhancer, MID Labs Top of the Page
With the Vit Enhancer
The Vit Enhancer offers vitrectomy system users a sophisticated, yet inexpensive and compact upgrade path to high-speed vitreous cutting. It will work with most vitrectomy systems which currently employ conventional low speed pneumatic vitreous cutters.

MID Labs Offers
The Vit Enhancer provides the means of operating a MID Labs LP Vitrector at up to 1500 cuts per minute. It synthesizes a low-pressure, shaped-wave pneumatic pulse train from the Host system's pneumatic output. The Vit Enhancer is very light as it does not contain a secondary compressor, and it does not require substantial AC power.

Compact High Speed Cutting to 1500 Cuts/Min
The pressure required by the LP Vitrector is one half that of the most popular pneumatic vitrectors. Lower pressure results in less power introduced into the cutter, allowing for finer control, quieter operation and less vibration over the entire cutting range.

Vitreous Cutter

For 2004 MID Labs is introducing a new line of Vitrectors known as DuraProbes. The DuraProbes are specifically designed for cut rates exceeding 800 cuts per minute (cuts/min). Along with having the capability of operating at cut rates up to 2500 cuts/min, the DuraProbe is designed for increased longevity. Higher cut rates equal more cuts. The MID Labs DuraProbe is a high cut rate Vitreous Cutter that will get the job done.

MID Labs offers Vitreous Cutters in four pressure ranges. With the diversity of ophthalmic systems in use, it is no longer possible to give optimum performance with just two (20 & 30 psi) pressure ranges. Please contact MID Labs for specific information as to which Vitrector is right for you.
