The Burki Disposable Bimanual Irrigation Aspiration System is a specialised ophthalmic instrument used during eye surgeries, particularly in procedures like phacoemulsification or cataract surgery. This system is designed for efficient irrigation and aspiration of fluids from the eye, ensuring a clear surgical field and optimal visibility for the surgeon.
The Burki system features a 21-gauge configuration, which refers to the size of the instrument. The smaller the gauge number, the larger the diameter of the instrument. The 21-gauge size strikes a balance between being sturdy enough for effective irrigation and aspiration while still minimizing the incision size and trauma to the eye.
