CAUTION: Do not Autoclave any part of the system.
CAUTION: Never immerse the entire lens piece or handpiece in any liquid solution.
If necessary, only the distal 4 mm can be immersed. See Figure 43.
WARNING: If you clean or disinfect, rinse the lens with sterile water to avoid
corneal deepithelialization that may be caused by residual solution.
Note: For disinfection, the American Academy of Ophthalmology
recommends 1:10 dilution of bleach soak for 5 minutes.
CAUTION: As disinfection solutions may cause corrosion of the lens piece, soak
times that exceed the recommendation should be avoided.
Alternate Cleaning and Disinfection
Cleaning Solution (Double): FrankLab Enzymex L9 (immersion time between 5 to
15 minutes; no greater than 2 hours)
Disinfection: FrankLab Peraxy-Lens or Peralex H8+ (30 minutes minimum: no
greater than 2 hours)
Please refer to the specific FrankLab Instruction on double cleaning and
disinfection.
Note: Permissible immersion depth is illustrated in Figure 43 below. It is
important not to immerse the joint where the polished metal tip meets the
painted housing, since it is susceptible to corrosion.
