The AMO Sovereign System with Whitestar Technology incorporates numerous advancements that enhance both performance and outcomes. Exclusive power matrix Phaco offers a broad range of programmable power mode options to dismantle the nucleus. Power matrix Phaco goes beyond Continuous Mode and Pulse Mode to provide industry-leading innovations.

The AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier features patented Whitestar Technology, the newest enhancement to the Sovereign System, sets a new standard for the efficient use of phaco energy. Whitestar Technology transforms traditional ultrasound into digitally modulated phaco, delivering power in microbursts and cooling microrests to increase efficiency. Surgeons who have used the AMO Sovereign System with Whitestar Technology have observed clearer corneas POD1 without changing their technique.

With Whitestar Technology, featured on the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier, far less energy is directed into the eye; yet full ultrasound cutting efficiency is achieved, including the ability to safely and efficiently remove even brunescent cataracts. Due to the digital power modulation of Whitestar Technology, turbulence and chatter are dramatically reduced, thus decreasing the repulsion of nuclear fragments. With Whitestar Technology, featured on the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier less time and energy are required to engage fragments, fluid use may decrease, and control is enhanced by excellent holdability. Surgeons have noted that nuclear fragments are drawn safely and efficiently to the phaco tip, in a phenomenon that has been termed magnetic followability.

Outstanding fluidics is another advantage of the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier with Whitestar Technology. A patented microprocessor system on the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier digitally monitors anterior chamber conditions to protect the capsule and cornea. The AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier detects and responds instantaneously to pressure variations at the phaco tip, maintaining anterior chamber stability and virtually eliminating postocclusion surges, even when using high vacuum settings.

Finally, the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier with Whitestar Technology offers a unique closed fluidic system with a patented diaphragm design. Fluid never enters the AMO Sovereign WHITESTAR Phacoemulsifier, making it safe from cross-contamination and reducing equipment maintenance.
