Phacoemulsification Use
CAUTION:
During any ultrasonic procedure, metal particles may result from inadvertent touching of the
ultrasonic tip with a second instrument. Another potential source of metal particles resulting
from any ultrasonic handpiece may be the result of ultrasonic energy causing micro abrasion
of the ultrasonic tip.
Note:
The ultrasound needle must be properly installed and not defective, and the irrigation and
aspiration lines must be properly connected.
Note:
Hold the handpiece tip towards the ceiling while priming the irrigation line to insure all air has
been removed.
