The State-Of-The-Art PHACO Machine Is A Safer And Better Option For Cataract Surgery
The present options in phaco surgeries are:
Standard Phaco
First Generation Phaco surgery done using simpler machines, the incision size is 3.2 mm. This type of surgery was first conducted in late 70’s. The surgery was done using injection to give local anesthesia.
Cold Phoco
The second generation phaco surgery, the normal incision size is 2.8mm but it is much safer since the amount of heat being delivered to the eye gets reduced significantly thus reducing the trauma. The walk-in, walk-out surgery thus resulted without using injection and patch.
Microincisional (Keyhole to Pinhole) Cataract Surgery
The MICS platform enables surgeon to do a microincision (1.4 – 1.8mm) cataract surgery that is not possible with any other system.
