Phacoemulsification systems are surgical devices used in cataract removal procedures to break down and aspirate the clouded lens. They deliver precise energy (like ultrasound or piezoelectric vibrations) via a handpiece inserted through a small incision in the eye’s capsule, enabling safe and controlled extraction of the lens nucleus.
These systems are typically regulated as complex medical devices, combining multiple components like generators, irrigation/aspiration units, and disposable tips. They are often supplied as integrated kits, requiring proper sterilization and adherence to surgical standards for safe clinical use.
