ALTON, IL, UNITED STATES, July 24, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Today, Ziemer USA, Inc., in partnership with CorneaGen, announced the launch of the GALILEI CTAK module now available for use with the GALILEI diagnostic platform. These advancements underscore Ziemer USA’s ongoing commitment to the U.S. refractive market, with a strong focus on corneal therapeutics and enhancing outcomes for patients with keratoconus.

David Bragg, President of Ziemer USA, stated: "We are thrilled to complete our product offering for CTAK patients. With the addition of the GALILEI CTAK module in combination with our FEMTO LDV Z8 femtosecond laser platform, we can now provide surgeons and patients with a fully integrated surgical solution aimed at restoring vision and improving outcomes."

Dr. Peter S. Hersh, MD, the originator of CTAK and a recognized leader in corneal surgery, shared his enthusiasm for the innovation: "The integration of CTAK with the Ziemer GALILEI diagnostic platform marks a significant step forward in the precision and personalization of keratoconus treatment. By combining high-resolution corneal tomography with laser-guided stromal inlay preparation, we can deliver an anatomically optimized and patient-specific approach to corneal reshaping. Such technological innovation moves us to safer, more predictable, and meaningful improvements in visual function for patients with keratoconus."
