The improved geometry with this three-stage tip-end enhances followability and holdability during cataract removal. Corneal impact of phaco surgery is minimized by the excellent cooling properties of the F-Sonic phaco tip sets. Cataract removal has never been easier - regardless the hardness of the nucleus.
“The F-Sonic Phaco Tip has a clear benefit, not only to me as a surgeon, but to my patients, as it enables a shortened wound healing time and therefore faster recovery from surgery. “The newly developed F-Sonic Phaco Tip allows a significant modification in my surgical procedure, as I am able to work more efficiently using high vacuum levels, without sacrificing safety.”
Dr Christian Scheib, Clinic Director at ViDia Christian Clinics
“This is surgical efficiency in its purest form. The F-Sonic Phaco Tip helps in effortless removal of any grade of cataract with the least amount of phaco time and energy, all without sacrificing safety. The F-Sonic Tip is the right tool for both surgeon and phacomachine, with great holdability and followability.”
Dr Atul Kadhane, Medical Director at Yash Eye Hospital
"With the F-Sonic Phaco Tip I am able to administer as little phacoemulsification power as possible, even on hard cataracts – which also helps to minimize energy damage in general. The F-Sonic Phaco Tip lets me use higher vacuum levels and offers a port area almost doubled to standard tips. The result is a larger surface area for collecting lens fragments as well as a significant increase in holding force – two components to an outstanding plus in efficiency"

Today, more than four million injection systems leave our production facility annually, which was newly built in 2016 in Altenrhein at the Swiss shore of Lake Constance. More than 20% of foldable intraocular lenses are injected with Medicel injection systems worldwide. Additionally, we produce several other single-use instruments for cataract and transplantation surgeries, which are used all over the world.
