Iris Scissors str 11.5cm TC

Clinical Application

Precision straight iris scissors are used for fine cutting tasks where control and minimal tissue trauma are essential. Typical applications include ophthalmic procedures (iris, conjunctiva, periocular tissue), microsurgery, plastice and reconstructive cases requiring delicate dissection, and accurate suture trimming in confined operative fields. The fine pointed tips facilitate controlled incisions and targeted removal of small tissue segments or sutures.

Design & Configuration

The straight geometry provides a direct cutting axis that enhances control for short, precise strokes and gliding cuts along tissue planes. The fine, tapered tips allow visual confirmation of the cutting edge at the point of contact, reducing collateral trauma and improving precision when operating under magnification. The 11.5 cm overall length offers a balance between fingertip control and reach into deeper but confined areas without sacrificing tactile feedback. Tungsten carbide inserts at the cutting interface deliver a consistently sharp edge and greater wear resistance compared with all-stainless cutting edges.

Material & Construction

Constructed with a stainless steel instrument body and tungsten carbide (TC) cutting inserts at the blade interface to maintain edge retention and cutting performance over repeated use. The precision-ground TC edges reduce the frequency of maintenance and sharpening. The instrument is manufactured for reusable use and designed for repeated reprocessing.
