Oertli has released details about the CataRhex 3 phacoemulsification device, which was launched at the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons meeting.

The compact, portable device weighs 5 kg and can be anchored to any IV pole, according to a press release.

The CataRhex 3 easyPhaco technology can be used with 1.6-, 2.2- and 2.8-mm incisions, and irrigation and aspiration with capsule cleaning can be performed quickly and safely with the newly developed CortexMode, the release said.

High-precision flow control and the pneumatic Twinac cutting instrument provide accuracy for performing anterior vitrectomies, and the HFDS ab interno function allows glaucoma and phaco surgeries to be combined.
