Phake-i^® Surgical Practice Eye

The Phake-i is a patented surgical practice eye designed to improve surgical skills. Modeled after the human eye, the Phake-i is dimensionally correct and approximates the shape, size and feel of the human eye. For Face Form see # 17105

The Phake-i has the following features:

- Central corneal thickness of 0.5 mm

- Peripheral corneal thickness of 0.8 mm

- Corneal diameter of 12 mm

- Dilated 8 mm pupil

- Lens: anterior capsular thickness of 0.0004”

- The lens material consists of a central solid core and a softer cortex suitable for hydrodelineation, chopping, phaco-emulsification and irrigation/aspiration

- Realistic feel of an incision

- Suitable for stainless steel or diamond knives and other instruments

- Non-toxic, fully recyclable

The Phake-i is ideal for practicing key ophthalmic surgical procedures:

- Repair of corneal and scleral lacerations

- Corneal incisions and suturing

- Scleral flaps and scleral tunnels

- Intravitreal injections

- Capsulorrhexis

- Phaco-emulsification

- IOL (PC-AC) implants/explants

- Capsular Tension Rings

- Iris expanders/hooks

- Limbal Relaxing Incisions (LRI)

- Penetrating Keratoplasty

The Phake-i used for surgical training, allows multiple different procedures to be performed on the same eye. However, a capsulotomy and phaco-emulsification can only be performed once.
