The letter stated: "...we will be releasing new software which contains an added safety feature which will prevent unintended shift of the planned ARC Incisions and/or alert you in case of unforeseen eye movement between configuration and execution of the ARC incisions. We will be contacting your practice the week of March 12th to set up a time to install this new software and provide in-depth training. Prior to the installation of the new software, you may continue to use the Z8 for cataract surgery; however, we would advise that you not perform both arcuate and clear corneal incisions on the same patient until the new software is installed.
