  • Title: [A simplified drainage/irrigation system for extracapsular cataract extraction].
    Author: Schmitt EJ.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1984 Mar; 184(3):238-9. PubMed ID: 6727244.
    Abstract:
    A simplified irrigation/aspiration system has been developed by the author in cooperation with the Klein company of Heidelberg. The suction is produced by connecting the instrument to a commonly used aspirator. The aspiration force is regulated by means of a foot-pedal, which regulates the amount of "bypass air" delivered through a special tube connected to the irrigation/aspiration handpiece. This simple i/a system represents a low-priced alternative to other systems already on the market.
