A surgical tip having a soft adaptive distal end that conforms to the irregular cross sectional contours of lens fragments, this construction allowing better occlusion of the tip distal end by adapting to the irregular shapes of the lens fragments thus improving the efficiency of the lensectomy probe by enhancing vacuum build up, reducing the total irrigant volume required to complete the lensectomy process and protects the lens capsule from accidental rupture said soft tip being usable with vibratory based, laser-based and water-jet based lensectomy handpieces as well as lens aspiration cannula.
