FCI reusable light connectors are necessary for using Laser Illumination Probes and/or Light Probes.
FCI Laser Illumination Probes and Light Probes come with a 19 Ga universal needle, that has to be inserted
into the reusable Light Connector. Once this is done, the connector is then plugged into the light source
socket of the vitrectomy machine.
At the end of the procedure, the 19 Ga universal needle is removed from the reusable connector. This
connector can stay connected to the light source, and will be used again for future surgeries by receiving
another 19 Ga needle attached to a new disposable light probe.
