Comparisons of the energy efficiency and intraocular safety of two torsional phacoemulsification tips

Abstract Background During cataract phacoemulsification surgery, an Intrepid® balanced (IB) tip can achieve a larger amplitude, which may lead to higher energy efficiency than a Kelman (K) tip when paired with a torsional phaco platform. In this retrospective cohort study, we compared their energy e...
