Phaco Chopper

Phaco choppers are precision ophthalmic instruments designed to assist in the fragmentation and emulsification of the lens nucleus during phacoemulsification cataract surgery. These specialized tools allow surgeons to mechanically split dense cataracts into smaller fragments, enhancing the efficiency and safety of ultrasonic energy use. Made from high-quality surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium, phaco choppers are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and fully autoclavable, ensuring long-term durability in sterile environments. Available in a range of styles—including horizontal, vertical, and combination choppers—they feature sharp, angled tips that provide exceptional control and access within the anterior chamber. The ergonomic handles allow for precise maneuvering, even under a surgical microscope. Ideal for ophthalmic surgeons seeking improved control and reduced phaco energy, phaco choppers play a critical role in minimizing endothelial cell loss and enhancing overall surgical outcomes in cataract extraction procedures.
