HIGH-FREQUENCY Capsulotomy

Since its launch in 1991, high-frequency capsulotomy has proven to be an alternative method for opening the lens capsule in uncountable cases. The capsular bag can be cut open using high-frequency energy – entirely without the usual tearing by forceps or needles. It is sufficient to gently slide the capsulotomy tip over the tissue, even under the iris, while applying the diathermy energy *.

HF capsulotomy is suitable for indications such as a lack of fundus reflex, hypermature cataract, traumatic cataract, intumescent cataract and juvenile cataract *. Even with narrow pupils, out-of-control rhexis or rhexis phimosis, HF capsulotomy delivers reliable outcomes *.
