Zusammenfassung: | A hollow needle for an ophthalmic surgical instrument for the in-vivo fragmentation of organic lenses by way of ultrasound, comprising a connecting region (1) for coupling to the instrument and a work region (3) configured at a free end (2), said work region having an effective surface (4) for emitting ultrasonic waves, a suction channel (5) for suctioning out lens fragments extending through the hollow needle, said channel being open in the work region (3) and the opening (6) thereof being formed or delimited by the effective surface (4), characterized in that the suction channel (5) has at least one further opening (7), which acts as a bypass and is configured in the work region (3). |
