Faros in cataract surgery
The ophthalmic device Faros delivers efficiency and precision in cataract surgery with its easyPhaco technology. The easyPhaco technology was developed for safe and efficient phacoemulsification. HF capsulotomy offers a gentle alternative to capsulorhexis.

Capsulorhexis
Capsulorhexis has marked a significant milestone in the development of cataract surgery, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of radial capsule ruptures. In standard phacoemulsification procedures, the anterior lens capsule is manipulated using a needle or forceps. However, in recent years, Femto laser-assisted capsulorhexis has gained increasing importance. Oertli has successfully taken another path – using HF capsulotomy, developed in collaboration with Professor Rudolf Klöti, Zurich.

Phaco for phaco machines
Cataract surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures performed worldwide. The gold standard for cataract treatment is phacoemulsification, often referred to as phaco. A small tunnel incision is made in the cornea, which usually closes on its own after the operation. A hollow needle is inserted through this incision, and ultrasonic energy is used to emulsify the lens nucleus, which is then aspirated. For this procedure, Oertli provides the easyPhaco technology, developed for safe and efficient emulsification.

Irrigation / aspiration in phaco surgery
With irrigation and aspiration instruments, the supply of irrigation fluid and the aspiration of lens material can be combined directly in one work step. Oertli offers I/A instruments and tips with a Safety Design, which together with the SPEEP pump are an ideal combination for the removal of lens material (cortex).

Diathermy
Diathermy is used in manifold ways in cataract surgery and can be a gentle alternative to capsulorhexis and forceps, particularly for capsule opening. Thanks to sophisticated technologies, the ophthalmic platforms from Oertli enable fine and controlled dosing of high-frequency energy.

Anterior vitrectomy
In anterior vitrectomy, the vitreous body is removed from the anterior segment and is usually replaced with BSS. The procedure is used when the vitreous body has entered the anterior chamber, after a posterior capsule rupture.
