    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus for controlling the flow of aspiration fluid in an aspiration chamber (185,524,624) of a surgical cassette (150,522,600). One embodiment of the present invention provides an aspiration chamber having an aspiration port (632) positioned at or close to the bottom of the chamber. When the aspiration fluid enters the aspiration chamber from below the fluid surface (e.g., from a port located at the bottom or on a sidewall close to the bottom), it does not create disturbance at the liquid/air interface and thus does not disturb continuous level sensing. Also, since the aspiration port is placed at or very close to the bottom of the aspiration chamber, the liquid inside the chamber can be fully used for sustained reflux and push priming.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide top and bottom clamping of a surgical cassette (150). One embodiment of the present invention includes a surgical cassette adapted for use in a surgical system having a first side (170) (e.g., an inner side) and second side (180) (e.g., an outer side). The surgical cassette, according to one embodiment, comprises a body portion (155,205) configured to interface on its first side with a surgical console (100) during use, a first clamping portion (195) projecting from the top of the body portion configured to contact a first clamp rail (182) on the cassette's second side during use and a second clamping portion (190) projecting from the bottom of the body portion configured to contact a second clamp rail (142) on the cassette's second side during use.
