Device Overview
Technical Specifications
Core Technology:
Electric breakdown: ~3000 V per mm
Optimal distance: 0.5mm from tissue
Probe tip width: 0.5mm
Mechanism: Sublimation (solid to gas) without heat transfer
Hardware:
Three wireless handpieces: White, Green, Red (calibrated for different power levels)
White handpiece (ophthalmology): 0.7-watt power

Ophthalmological Applications
PANIS Method
Plasma-Assisted Noninvasive Surgery - developed by Iranian Vision Research Center for ocular surface disorders using Plexr Plus technology.
Treatable Pathologies
1. Dermatochalasis (Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty)
Pathology: Drooping eyelid skin, age-related laxity
Plexr Plus Results: 100% improvement rate, +2.6 grade increase, immediate visible results lasting years, 30-35% improvement per session
2. Conjunctivochalasis
Pathology: Loose redundant conjunctiva causing tearing, irritation
Plexr Plus Results: Grade 3-4 reduced to grade 1-2 in 1 month, all normalized at 6 months, no recurrence, 5-10 minute procedure
3. Pterygium
Pathology: Fibrovascular growth onto cornea from UV exposure
Plexr Plus Results: Improved visual acuity, no sutures/glue needed, few minutes procedure (vs. 30 min traditional), 0-33% recurrence rates
4. Conjunctival Nevus
Pathology: Benign melanocytic tumor
Plexr Plus Results: Complete disappearance outside limbus, size reduced from 3.89×11.7mm to 0.54×1.69mm, no recurrence, no complications
5. Dry Eye (Punctal Occlusion)
Pathology: Aqueous deficient dry eye
Plexr Plus Results: TMH +79.8%, TBUT +69.99%, Schirmer +86.20%, sustained 3-6 months, no foreign body sensation vs. plugs
6. Conjunctival Cyst
Pathology: Fluid-filled epithelial inclusion cysts
Plexr Plus Results: 100% complete healing, no recurrence, no complications, no scarring
7. Chalazion
Pathology: Meibomian gland obstruction/inflammation
Plexr Plus Application: Alternative to incision/curettage for chronic cases, minimally invasive drainage
8. Entropion
Pathology: Inward turning eyelid causing corneal irritation
Plexr Plus Application: Tissue tightening for mild involutional cases, adjunct to correct malposition
9. Conjunctival Stria
Pathology: Linear conjunctival folds from laxity
Plexr Plus Application: Tissue shrinkage and remodeling to reduce striations
Key Advantages of Plexr Plus
vs. Surgery:
No operating room, no general anesthesia, no incisions
Office-based procedures
1-2 day recovery vs. weeks
Lower cost
vs. Other Energy Devices:
No heat conduction to surrounding tissue
More precise (0.5mm tip)
Safer for periocular/ocular surface
No return electrode
Clinical Benefits:
Single device, multiple applications
Topical anesthesia only
5-30 minute procedures
Immediate results
Minimal complications
Safety Profile:
Superficial action preserves deep structures
No thermal damage to underlying tissue
Minimal bleeding/inflammation
7-14 day healing
Summary
Plexr Plus treats 9 ophthalmological pathologies:
2 eyelid disorders
5 conjunctival surface disorders
2 functional/glandular disorders
Device uniqueness: Wireless handpieces, 0.7W white handpiece for ophthalmology, precise 0.5mm tip, no heat spread, extensive global validation (40+ publications, 60+ countries, 12+ years use).
