INDICATIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR THE ELLIPS^™ FX PHACO HANDPIECE AND WHITESTAR^™ PHACO HANDPIECE
Rx Only

INDICATIONS

The WHITESTAR Phaco Handpiece is utilized during the phacoemulsification procedure to break up (emulsify) the nucleus of the cataractous lens and remove the remaining nuclear fragments.

INDICATIONS

The ELLIPS FX Phaco Handpiece is utilized during the phacoemulsification procedure to break up (emulsify) the nucleus of the cataractous lens and remove the remaining nuclear fragments.

CAUTIONS
Never attempt to straighten a bent needle. This will products a broken tip when phaco power is applied. Do not clean the phaco handpiece with any type of ultrasonic cleaning device; it will damage the piezoelectric crystals. Do not use tap water for cleaning. Do not sterilize the handpiece prior to performing the cleaning procedure described in the directions for use.

PRECAUTIONS
Only use this ELLIPS FX Phaco Handpiece and WHITESTAR Phaco Handpiece with the WHITESTAR Signature^™ phacoemulsification machine. Overall system performance may be impaired when used in combination with non-Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision products. It is important that the electrical connector on the handpiece is completely dry prior to connecting it to the WHITESTAR Signature phacoemulsification machine receptacles. Moisture will prevent the handpiece from operating properly and you may receive a handpiece error message on the panel display of the phacoemulsification machine if the connector is wet.

WARNINGS
Improper/inadequate cleaning may result in particulate matter adhering to the instrument and exfoliation of particles into the surgical field. In addition, the function and life expectancy of the phaco handpiece may become compromised. The use of gas sterilization is not recommended. The surgical staff must monitor the balanced salt solution height and fluid level at all times. A low bottle/bag height or empty bottle/bag affects the fluid balance and the intraocular pressure (IOP) while aspirating and can result in:
Inadvertent chamber shallowing or collapse, aspiration or abrasion of iris or other eye tissue, an ultrasonic wound heating commonly called wound burn (extreme case)

ATTENTION
Reference the Directions for Use for a complete listing of indications, warnings, and precautions.
