HF easyTip 2.2mm
The phacoemulsifications tip used was the easyTip 2.2mm tip (Oertli Instruments, Berneck, Switzerland). The cristaline lens was divided into four quadrants using an aspiration flow rate of 10ml/min and vacuum of 70 mmHg. The quadrants were aspirated using the following linear power and fluidic settings: aspiration flow rate 45ml/min, vacuum 600 mmHg, bottle height 100cm.

HF easyTip 2.8mm
The phacoemulsifications tip used was the easyTip 2.8mm tip (Oertli Instruments, Berneck, Switzerland). The cristaline lens was divided into four quadrants using an aspiration flow rate of 10ml/min and vacuum of 70 mmHg. The quadrants were aspirated using the following linear power and fluidic settings: aspiration flow rate 50ml/min, vacuum 600 mmHg, bottle height 100cm.
