Irrigation is an essential component of the surgery.

In parallel, aspiration brings the components of the cataract closer to the surgical instrument. A balance between irrigation and aspiration during surgery is essential to maintain stability in the AC. However, an ideal flow rate, which influences IOP during surgery, is yet to be determined.

The surgery has known many improvements across time and continues to do so. Irrigation is an essential component of the surgery. Fluid is constantly being circulated to help regulate temperature as heat is generated with the use of ultrasound energy, to minimize tissue trauma, and to create an intraocular pressure sufficient to keep the anterior chamber stable. In parallel, aspiration brings the components of the cataract closer to the surgical instrument. A balance between irrigation and aspiration during surgery is essential to maintain stability in the anterior chamber. However, an ideal flow rate, which influences intraocular pressure (IOP) during surgery, is yet to be determined. Most recent studies with Centurion Active Sentry (maintaining vacuum and aspiration rates the same) show that there is similar efficiency between higher and lower IOP settings. Traditionally, high-flow rates have been used in advanced cataracts and are believed to increase the space in the anterior chamber. However, they are known to create fluid turbulence and are associated with risks of tissue damage, including cell loss in the endothelial layer of the cornea.

Using central corneal thickness (CCT) as an indicator of corneal trauma, it has been shown that patients that have had surgery with low-flow rates present no change in the CCT postoperatively while patients in the high-flow rates show signs of corneal damage as well as greater anterior segment inflammation.
