EASYPHACO® TECHNOLOGY
With Oertli’s easyPhaco, phaco emulsification has made a significant stride forward. easyPhaco provides unsurpassed chamber stability, efficient fragment aspiration and perfect emulsification.
easyPhaco technology does its name justice: what Oertli created in 2008 and has continuously developed further ever since, has made phaco as simple and safe as never before. By making use of fluidics technology, easyPhaco enables immediate aspiration of the lens material and ensures perfect followability. The unique design of the tips (you will find more information on easyTips here) ensure unsurpassed chamber stability, while at the same time, incredibly high holdability can be felt. Aspiration of fragments runs efficiently and without any repulsions. The focussed axial output of ultrasound energy ensures targeted emulsification directly into the lens fragment. And, because the Oertli phaco hand piece is equipped with six Piezo crystals, the transmission of power to the tip happens in a direct and gentle way with less heat development.
Advantages of easyPhaco®
- Unsurpassed chamber stability
- Perfect followability thanks to precise flow control
- Focussed axial output of ultrasound energy
- Direct and gentle transmission of power to the tip
- Efficient fragment aspiration without repulsion
- Available from 1.6 mm up to 2.8 mm
