Abstract:
In recent years bimanual phacoemulsification has become an increasingly popular method of cataract extraction. We describe a new spatula designed to manipulate and protect the posterior capsule safely during phacoemulsification. In addition, this spatula can be used to facilitate irrigation/aspiration.
