Phaco Incision 
IQ Geometry™ is an intelligent advancement in knife technology. The principle behind this innovative cutting edge is simple-geometry. Its patent-pending tangential design merges two micro-thin radii to create an edge that engages tissue with only two contact points. Fewer contact points mean a lower coefficient of friction; hence less penetration force is needed. Reduced penetration force promotes more precise cellular dissection resulting in superior wound architecture.
|
| Along with a "smarter" design, this elemental edge is also extremely thin. Measuring in at 0.1 mm, it is 40+% thinner than our standard slit knives. This thinness, combined with the Sharpoint™ Infinite Edge™ proprietary finishing technology, provides IQ Geometry™ knives with a diamond-like sharpness unparalleled in standard knives. |

IQ Geometry™ ClearTrap™ Knives, Bevel Up |
| Sharpoint™ IQ Geometry™ ClearTrap™ knives feature an innovative cutting edge that engages the tissue at two contact points. This thinner blade design results in a reduction in penetration force and the trapezoid design, along with patented width indicator lines, provides a phaco and implant knife in one. 6 per box. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,217,476). |
