A stepwise game plan for transitioning to phaco chop will be presented, along with phacodynamic principles for machine parameters and instrumentation. Pearls for brunescent nuclei will be covered. The audience will don stereo glasses to view 3-D high-definition videos that uniquely illustrate the angle and depth of the instrument tips for both horizontal and vertical chopping. Pre-chopping methods, including miLOOP will also be demonstrated.
