    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Technology
    • Retinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Vitrectomy surgery carries risks of iatrogenic complications such as suprachoroidal hemorrhage and retinal tears.
    • Familiarity with the mechanical principles of vitrectomy instruments is crucial for hazard minimization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the features of a new generation intraocular cutter (I.O.C.).
    • To highlight how understanding instrument mechanics can reduce surgical complications.
    • To emphasize the potential for improved ocular perfusion with informed use.

    Main Methods:

    • Description of a novel intraocular cutter (I.O.C.) with two operational modes.
    • Mode 1: Fully integrated, electronically controlled, automatic unit.
    • Mode 2: Battery-operated Standby I.O.C. with hand suction.
