Flexibility at Your Fingertips

Our phaco handpieces deliver true ultrasound efficiency to optimize lens extraction with lower corneal edema and endothelial cell loss.1 Because our handpieces offer compatibility across our entire portfolio of phaco tips, you can use your preferred phaco technique.
(Pictured: ELLIPSTM FX Handpiece)

Engineered for exceptional ultrasound efficiency, the ELLIPSTM FX Handpiece uses continuous elliptical tip movement for optimal phaco productivity.

  • Delivers smooth, efficient cutting1
  • Reduced phaco time1
  • Resulted in less corneal edema and lower endothelial cell loss than the Alcon OZil Handpiece1*,**
  • Concentrates heat at the hub, keeping it away from the incision2
  • Compatible with all Johnson & Johnson Vision phaco tips, curved, flared or straight

For use with the VERITASTM System and WHITESTAR SIGNATURETM PRO Phacoemulsification System.

 

The WHITESTARTM Phaco Handpiece is an ultrasonic handpiece designed to facilitate removal of the natural lens during cataract surgery. Using longitudinal vibrations, it moves at an ultrasonic frequency to emulsify the cataract and aspirate the debris through the hollow needle.

For use with the VERITASTM System, WHITESTAR SIGNATURETM System and SOVEREIGNTM Compact System.
