Surgilum manufactures the RoboMarker G2, a handheld ophthalmic corneal marking system for precise surgical alignment in cataract and refractive surgery. The device features a self-leveling pendular mechanism with Swiss ball bearings, accelerometer-activated laser targeting with diffractive optical element (DOE) projection, illuminated axis dial, and mechanical brake to prevent unintentional rotation. Primary applications include toric intraocular lens (IOL) placement and femtosecond laser alignment. The RoboMarker G2 employs proprietary pre-inked sterile, single-use RoboTip consumables with a dry formula that produces marks lasting 2+ hours without autoclave delays. Key features include 360° rotational adjustment, dual-position tips for corneal (7mm) or scleral (12mm) marking, and patient fixation light for consistent alignment. The company emphasizes 35+ years of ophthalmic surgical experience and has won five international design awards. The system eliminates multiple traditional instruments (axis rings, digital alignments), reduces OR time (~5 minutes saved per case), and integrates into surgical workflows for both pre-op and intraoperative marking. Products are sold direct through the company website with stainless steel handpiece at $3,300 USD; tips sold separately.

Optopol USA is the US distributor of Optopol automated perimetry systems, specializing in visual field testing equipment for ophthalmology and optometry practices.
