摘要: A device and system for creating small, less than 3 mm preferably about 1 in cross dimension, openings the anterior lens capsule (LC) of a mammalian eye (E) to facilitate insertion reduction/removal device(s) and/or cannulae injecting flowable replacement materials into (LC). The generally comprises handpiece (18) having an electrosurgical probe (10) extending forwardly therefrom. incorporates annular tip electrode (16) which is positionable contact with (LC), create desired opening therein. may be either monopolar or bipolar design.
