A simplified irrigation/aspiration system offers a low-cost alternative for surgical procedures. This device utilizes a standard aspirator and a foot-pedal for precise suction control.

Area of Science:

Ophthalmology
Surgical Instrumentation

Context:

Cataract surgery requires efficient irrigation and aspiration (I/A) systems.
Existing I/A systems can be costly, limiting accessibility.

Purpose:

To introduce a simplified and low-cost irrigation/aspiration system.
To provide a cost-effective alternative for surgical fluid management.

Summary:

A novel, simplified irrigation/aspiration (I/A) system has been developed in collaboration with the Klein company.
The system connects to a standard surgical aspirator, with suction controlled via a foot-pedal.
A unique bypass air mechanism integrated into the handpiece allows for precise aspiration force regulation.

Impact:

This simplified I/A system presents a budget-friendly option compared to existing market alternatives.
