Abstract
It is hoped that this brief summary of some of the underlying principles of phaco-emulsification equipment will enable the surgeon to understand better what the machine is doing at different times, and that intelligent use can be made of this information to enhance the effectiveness and safety of cataract operations. Suggestions about how these principles can be implemented during surgery are contained in a complementary article [3].
