The phaco machine is the centrepiece of cataract surgery — it emulsifies the clouded natural lens using ultrasound energy and removes it through a tiny incision, allowing an artificial intraocular lens to be implanted the same day. Cataract surgery is one of the highest-volume, highest-impact procedures in ophthalmology, and a reliable phaco platform is the single biggest driver of surgical throughput for any eye hospital or surgical centre.
