A phacoemulsification system handpiece tip is a reusable surgical tool used in cataract surgery to break down and remove the clouded lens. It delivers energy—such as ultrasound or piezoelectric waves—to liquefy the lens nucleus while also managing irrigation and suction to clear debris from the eye.
These devices are typically regulated as surgical instruments, often requiring compliance with sterilization standards and performance validation. They are supplied as part of a larger phacoemulsification system and must meet safety and efficacy criteria for repeated use in clinical settings.
