Engineered for prechopping firm nuclei before phaco energy is applied, the Akahoshi prechopper uses a cross‑action mechanism to split the lens within the capsular bag through a single instrument pass. The angled titanium tips enter the anterior chamber through a clear corneal incision, then spread to divide the nucleus along its natural cleavage planes. Titanium construction keeps the cross‑action precise and corrosion‑resistant across repeated autoclave cycles.
Features & Benefits
- Cross‑action tips split the nucleus before phaco energy
- Angled geometry reaches the lens through a corneal incision
- Reusable instrument suits high‑volume cataract programs
- Titanium build resists corrosion across repeat autoclaving
