Laboratory assessment of thermal characteristics of three phacoemulsification tip designs operated using torsional ultrasound
PURPOSE: Ultrasound activation of phacoemulsification (phaco) tips can create considerable thermal energy that may increase the risk of tissue damage during cataract surgery. The purpose of this study was to define the thermal profiles of three phaco tip designs in simulated surgical conditions. MET...
