Abstract
We used power modulations in addition to new technology available from 6 phacoemulsification manufacturers and altered our phacoemulsification techniques to take advantage of these technologies to significantly reduce the amount of ultrasound energy placed into the eye and enhance the rapidity and level of visual rehabilitation in patients.Keywords
