Clinical Application
Designed for ophthalmic and oculoplastic procedures, these scissors are intended for precise dissection and cutting of extraocular muscles, Tenon's capsule, conjunctiva and delicate periocular tissues encountered during strabismus surgery. The fine straight tips facilitate controlled point cuts and short, accurate snips under magnification, minimizing collateral tissue trauma and improving suturing and reattachment accuracy.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry provides direct alignment with muscle fibers and tissue planes, allowing surgeons to make linear cuts and perform tenotomies with predictable tip orientation. At 11 cm overall length the instrument balances reach into the orbital field with close tactile control at the tips, making it suitable for both primary procedures and revision work performed under loupe or operating microscope magnification. The narrow, fine tips enable access into confined spaces and precise dissection adjacent to suture material.
Instrument Specifications
