Castroviejo Keratoplasty & Keratectomy Scissors

mirror finish, blunt tips, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Stevens Tenotomy Scissors are a commonly used tool in ophthalmologic surgeries. The scissors are designed to cut the insertion of the extra-ocular orbital muscles. This is accomplished by placing one blade of the scissors behind the tendon. The scissors feature blunt tips to reduce damage to the surrounding orbital tissue and are available in a straight or curved profile depending on surgical preference.

miniature pattern, uneven blunt blades, upper blade shorter than lower blade, Katzin Corneal Transplant Scissors are a useful tool during Keratoplasty operations. The miniature pattern of the blades allows for precise incisions of the corneal tissue. The uneven blades are designed to accommodate the curvature and thickness of the cornea, producing a minimally altered graft. In addition, the scissors are available curved right or left depending on surgical preference.

miniature pattern, 10.0 mm equal length blades, w/ lock, 4-1/8" (10.5 cm) Troutman-Castroviejo Corneal Section Scissors are a useful tool in performing a sclerocorneal section to gain access to the anterior chamber of the eye or lens during a cataract operation. The extended 10mm blades allow for quick and precise cuts through corneal tissue while reducing operating time. The locking mechanism allows the inner blade to remain stationary depending on physician preference. Both right and left curvature are available on the scissors to accommodate a variety of surgical needs.

curved, sharp blades, 8.0mm, 4" (10.2 cm) Castroviejo Scissors are a general purpose tool in a variety of ophthalmologic procedures. The spring action design allows for the delicate incision of tissue and is commonly used during Mohs procedures. The sharp blades allow for quick and accurate cuts with minimal extraneous damage. The curved profile of the blades allows for the contouring to the globe or periorbital surface.
