Brief Introduction to the Latest Ultrasonic Emulsifying Machine
See Alcon INFINITI System at Fig 1, new rotary-cutting Ultrasonic Phacoemulsification (OZil Torsional) adopts 32,000Hz Ultrasonic side-to-side oscillations to emulsify lens material and keep the fluid balance in anterior chamber by use of principle of hydrodynamics, the advantages of which are: Greatly increase the efficiency of Ultrasonic emulsification; improve the safety of surgery; shorten the time of surgery; reduce the risk for thermal injury to cornea; and reduce the risk for astigmatic complications after surgery.
In a word, a perfect Phacoemulsification needs balance of three kinds forces and deft operation:
1. Power of Ultrasonic emulsification
2. Extraction force
3. Mechanical force (break nucleus by assisting device)
