Abstract
This disclosure relates to thermal emulsification systems and methods for cataract removal. The thermal emulsification systems can apply heat to the crystalline lens of the eye, resulting in the emulsification of the crystalline lens. The emulsified crystalline lens can be aspirated from the capsular bag of the eye. The thermal emulsification systems can include one or more elements that can be heated to apply localized heat to the crystalline lens to avoid unintentional damage to other ocular components and cellular structures of the eye, such as the capsular bag. The thermal emulsification systems can supply heated fluid to the lens to apply localized heat to the lens to avoid unintentional damage to other ocular components and cellular structures of the eye, such as the capsular bag.
