Used Phacoemulsifier in Germany

Overview

A phacoemulsifier is an ophthalmic surgical device used to remove cataracts by using ultrasonic energy to break up the eye’s cloudy lens, while simultaneously irrigating and aspirating lens fragments. Modern units combine adjustable power settings, fluidics control, footswitch operation and compatible handpieces to optimize efficiency and safety in microsurgery. Clinics choose models based on fluidics performance, vacuum/pulse modes, ease of sterilization, service support and availability of consumables and spare parts.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used phacoemulsifier?

Verify service and maintenance records, hours of ultrasonic use, condition of handpieces and tubing, availability of consumables and spare parts, software version, and whether a certified biomedical engineer can inspect it before purchase.

How should a phacoemulsifier be prepared and shipped?

Drain all fluids, remove and pack handpieces and footswitches separately, use a climate-controlled, insured carrier experienced with medical equipment, and crate the unit to protect sensitive optics and electronics.

What routine maintenance keeps a phacoemulsifier reliable?

Follow manufacturer sterilization and lubrication procedures, replace O-rings and filters per schedule, test fluidics and vacuum performance regularly, apply software updates, and schedule annual preventive maintenance with an authorized technician.
