Purpose: To compare the efficacy of the Intrepid® Balanced torsional phacoemulsification tip to that of the 30° Ozil® and 45° Kelman® tips using Centurion Vision System.
Methods: This study included 150 eyes that underwent torsional phacoemulsification surgery using 30° Ozil tip (Group 1, 48 eyes), Intrepid Balanced tip (Group 2, 52 eyes), or 45° Kelman tip (Group 3, 50 eyes). Ultrasound time (UST), cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), average phaco power, average torsional amplitude, balanced salt solution volume, aspiration and operation time, and preoperative, postoperative corrected distance visual acuity, central corneal thickness were recorded.
