Abstract
A vitreous disintegration device with multiple intake ports and a laser for vitreous disintegrating. The probe includes a needle to accommodate the ports for a more continuous and fluidic uptake of vitreous from an eye of a patient. Additionally, the use of a laser may be employed to disintegrate the vitreous in a manner that avoids blocking of ports and thus, further promoting the fluidic uptake. The laser may reach the ports at the channel at substantially the same time or in succussion. Further, the use of a laser for the disintegrating means that cutter vibrations may be reduced.
