Thanks to the use of the fluidics technology and the precise flow control, easyPhaco enables immediate aspiration of the lens material for perfect followability. The unique design of the tips ensures unmatched chamber stability while simultaneously providing very high holdability. The fragments are aspirated efficiently and without repulsion. The focused axial delivery of the ultrasound energy guarantees targeted emulsification directly into the lens fragment. And, because the Oertli easyPhaco handpiece is equipped with six Piezo crystals, the transmission of power to the tip happens in a direct and gentle way with less heat development.
How easyPhaco works in practice
How easyPhaco works in theory
Direct fragment followability
The high vacuum setting and the wide infusion path of the easyTips create a direct flow to the tip. This results in a magnet-like attraction of the fragments.
Strong fragment holdability
The easyTip's unique bevel of the tip opening has been designed to hold fragments firmly at the tip. Thanks to the high vacuum created, fragments are no longer repelled.
U/S energy absorbed by the occluded fragments
Thanks to the strong holdability and the longitudinal movements of the easyTips, ultrasound is axially directed to the occluded fragments.
Smooth fragment aspiration
Following an occlusion break, the capillary aspiration path of the easyTips provides continuous aspiration. The high vacuum setting prevents clogging, and fragments are smoothly aspirated.
Stable anterior chamber
A seven times higher infusion capacity favours constant intraocular pressure.

Handpiece & phaco tips
easyPhaco® handpiece
The easyPhaco handpiece offers the surgeon optimised phaco performance[1] for the entire lifetime of the product as well as greater user comfort. The piezo crystals ensure optimised phaco performance[1] for the entire lifetime of the product. The shortened cable length promises more user comfort thanks to less weight and additional space savings in processing and storage (standard sterilization container).
Phaco tip easyTips
The easyTip's unique bevel of the tip opening has been designed to hold fragments firmly at the tip. Thanks to the high vacuum created, fragments are no longer repelled. The single use easyTips come along with an irrigation sleeve, a test chamber, a phaco and an emergency key. The easyTip product range offers six different tips. From CO-MICS up to 3.2 mm incisions.
