Abstract
The invention contemplates a cauterizing tool in which the localized working surface of a cauterizing electrode is at an offset end of an elongate tubular body which may be of hypodermic-needle proportions and which is adapted for syringe connection to enable manipulation and irrigation of the region of cauterizing surgery, without need to remove the cauterizing tool. In ophthalmological surgery, the tool enables trans-iris placement and manipulation of the electrode region for clean circular cutting and irrigation of the anterior wall of the lens capsule, as a preliminary to removal of cataracted lens material from within the capsule.
