Nucleus Chopper

Designed for use as a horizontal and oblique nucleus chopper, the cutting segment of the chopper extends around the bend and along the horizontal shaft. The chopper tip is inclined back towards the nucleus to ensure the capture of even hard nuclei. May be used as a nucleus sustainer, the ball at the base of the chopper is smooth to protect the posterior capsule. The leading edge of the chopper is smooth which is ideal for iris manipulation. The horizontal shaft has a 0.55mm parallel diameter to reduce leakage through a 23 gauge incision.
