We describe a technique in which one-handed phacoemulsification with low aspiration flow and vacuum is performed with a peristaltic pump machine. With this technique, ultrasonic energy can be used for nucleus segmentation without the need for a second instrument. Measurements in cadaver eyes and clinical experience showed the technique to be simple, effective, and safe.
