Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8701926A1] An improved irrigation fluid conduit (120) for use with a coaxial surgical irrigator-aspirator (102) for ophthalmic surgery comprises a hollow body (130) adapted for attachment to the surgical irrigator-aspirator (102) and a thin-walled tubular sleeve (132) extending from the hollow body to surround the aspiration conduit (126) of the instrument. The body (130) and sleeve (132) are homogeneously molded from polypropylene, which permits a rigid thin wall sleeve (132) having a wall thickness not greater than 0.006 inches and which is transparent for increased visibility of the adjacent tissues.
