Surgical Applications of Phaco Chopper (both RHD & LHD), 1.7mm

This device provides mechanical nucleus segmentation and counter-traction within small-incision access, using a 1.7 mm profile for controlled intraocular manipulation. It enables rotational control and fragment stabilization inside the capsular bag, and propagates an initial split created by the primary instrument.

Common Applications

• Nucleus chopping and division during phacoemulsification
• Counter-traction for vertical or horizontal chopping maneuvers
• Stabilization of lens fragments within the capsular bag
• Controlled nucleus rotation and repositioning
• Manipulation through small clear-corneal or limbal incisions
• Ambidextrous use for right- or left-hand–dominant technique
