Ocutrx Enhances ORLenz Headset for Spine Surgery

Ocutrx Technologies announced the latest development of its ORLenz headset for use in spine surgery applications.

The ORLenz AR/XR surgery headset, currently in clinical assessment for ophthalmologic procedures, now aims to innovate as a “stand-alone” device for spinal interventions and orthopedic surgeries. Fashioned as a digital loupe solution, this version of the ORLenz is called the DigiLoupe AR/XR headset. It is designed to supersede conventional optical surgical loupes to offer a modern, digital alternative with higher resolution and greater magnification. Additionally, it can deliver enhanced ergonomics, aiming to significantly improve the comfort and efficiency of surgeons during procedures.

The DigiLoupe headset solves an ergonomic problem by having the cameras tilt and look down during surgeries instead of the surgeon looking down, so the surgeon stays flexible and in a positive ergonomic stance. It displays 3D holographic images of the surgery site and enhances ergonomics by giving surgeons freedom of movement and positioning. With up to 10x magnification and cinematic quality resolution, the ORLenz headset is anticipated to provide spine and orthopedic surgeons with clarity and detail, essential for precise and effective procedures.

Currently in the prototype and testing stage, the DigiLoupe headset is expected to expand its applications beyond ophthalmology and spine surgery.
