160 EW PRODUCT SHOWCASE Pure Efficiency Phaco sets Geuder introduced Pure Efficiency Phaco sets for incisions of 2.2 mm and 2.4 mm with high performance titanium PEP ultrasonic tips. The active surface for ultrasound emulsification is maximized by the three-step design and 40- degree angle. A smaller edge geometry makes entry to hard lens nuclei easier so ultrasound times can be shortened. Improved fluidics allow for increased followability and efficient holdability.
