The easyPhaco technology was developed for safe and efficient phacoemulsification. Thanks to Oertli’s unique fluidics concept, easyPhaco allows direct control over fragments and ensures a high holdability *. The occluded fragments absorb the ultrasound energy and are then efficiently aspirated with no clogging *. The infusion capacity is several times higher than the aspiration, enabling the intraocular pressure to be maintained for a stable anterior chamber 1.

How easyPhaco works in practice

How easyPhaco works in theory

Direct fragment followability

The high vacuum setting and the wide infusion path of the easyTips create a direct flow to the tip. This results in a magnet-like attraction of the fragments *.

Strong fragment holdability

The angled easyTip opening has been designed to hold fragments firmly at the tip *.

U/S energy absorbed by the occluded fragments

Thanks to the strong holdability and the longitudinal movements of the easyTips, ultrasound is directed axially to the occluded fragments.

Smooth fragment aspiration

Following an occlusion break, the capillary aspiration path of the easyTips provides continuous aspiration. Thanks to the high vacuum created, the fragments are efficiently aspirated *.

Stable anterior chamber

The infusion capacity is several times higher than the aspiration, enabling the intraocular pressure to be maintained for a stable anterior chamber 1.

    MAKING THE DIFFERENCE WITH ASTOUNDING FLUIDICS

    «The CataRhex 3 is an amazing Swiss-engineered precision phacoemulsification device. It is one of the most underrated phaco machines on the US market. I have used the CataRhex 3 on hundreds of cases in direct head-to-head comparison with the other major phaco machines. The CataRhex 3 is like the David to all the other Goliath machines. The fluidics are astounding. The phaco power is more than enough even for the most dense lenses.  It is easy to set up and has a small footprint. It is my go to machine for all cataract cases D
