Phaco
easyPhaco® technology

Thanks to Oertli’s clever needle design, its sophisticated fluidics concept and world class pump systems, easyPhaco® technology
offers visible and tangible benefits:

• Unprecedented chamber stability, perfect emulsification and extremely effective aspiration of fragments
• Gentle and effective aspiration thanks to excellent followability and holdability of fragments
• Concentrated axial ultrasound and highest possible power generation for perfect emulsification
• Elimination of vacuum fluctuations thanks to a capillary aspiration path

Oertli easyPhaco® technology is available in three different tip sizes. All incisions are covered irrespectively of whether you work
with sub 2 mm coaxial micro phaco or with standard incision sizes up to 3.2 mm.

Quick Tips with Safety Design

1 Extended leg length for better sub-incisional accessibility

2 Downsizing of aspiration opening for better occludability, safety
during aspiration and a stable anterior chamber
3 Repositioning of the aspiration opening that prevents from
unintentional grasping of the capsular bag

Features and Benefits

The Quick Tips with Safety Design, especially in combination with the CortexMode™, provide the highest standard of safety,
control and efficiency in the procedure of I/A. In detail, it will provide the following benefits:

• Completely stable anterior chamber

• Improved sub-incisional accessibility
• Better occludability
• High standard of safety during capsule cleaning process

Additionally, the tips are equipped with the sophisticated Quick Tip snap-on lock closing that enables a fast change of the tip
in the sterile field.

The I/A Quick Tips with Safety Design are intended for application with sleeve.

HF Function/Diathermy
HFDS® ab interno MIGS technology
High Frequency Deep Sclerotomy (HFDS) glaucoma surgery is
a new ab interno procedure to lower the intraocular pressure
in open-angle glaucoma. Using high frequency energy, six
small pockets are formed in the iridocorneal angle, which sig-
nificantly reduce the outflow resistance for aqueous humour.
Area of application
Features and Benefits
• Ideal for combinations with cataract surgeries
• Very short intervention times
• No bleb formation
• No corneal scars
• No fibroblast movement to the sclera
Positioning of abee® tip
• Procedure can be repeated

Caliburn™ trocar cannula system – work with the sharpest instruments

«The lancet-pointed needle from Oertli had remarkable low piercing and cutting forces.»
Independent study*

Features and Benefits

• Superb post-operative wound tightness
• New surface finish for even smoother incisions
• Less resistance on trocar edge-entry
• Patented snap-on lock infusion line for more flexibility
• Incision template for exact trocar placement
• Patented integrated, double-slotted sealing membrane
• Easy finding and entry with instruments
• Reliably constant IOP during surgery
• Reliable retention of the trocar
• Color coded for each gauge size (23G, 25G)

Application 1. Pull the conjunctiva slightly sideways over the sclera with the Oertli®
incision template.

2. Insert the trocar in the sclera through the incision opening by holding
cannula blade at an angle of maximum 30°.

3. After inserting the blade, lift the blade vertically and gently penetrate the
sclera with the instrument.

4. Insert the trocar completely until its head touches the sclera.
The shaft is now fully inserted.

5. Connect the infusion line with the patent-registered snap mechanism

to the trocar. Insert the remaining trocars in the sclera using the above
mentioned procedure (steps 1 to 4).
