Bracken Iris Forceps

bayonet-shaped, cross-serrated, 3" (7.5 cm) Botvin Iris Forceps are a useful tool in ophthalmologic procedures involving repair of the iris following trauma. The forceps are designed to handle the long needle necessary for iris suturing, commonly used with 10-0 polypropelene or 4-0 silk sutures. The bayonet style design is meant to minimize surgical obstruction during the operation.

4" (10.2 cm) Arruga Capsule Forceps are a commonly used tool in cataract procedures. The forceps feature delicate spoon shaped ends used for cupping and extracting capsular fragments or commonly used for removing the nuclei fragments of the native lens.

3-1/2" (8.9 cm)Douglass Cilia Forceps are an ideal tool for ophthalmologic procedures involving the eyelid. The forceps feature a slightly rounded tip for removing the cilia for blepharoplasty or management of blepharitis marginalis. The wide serrated handle gives the surgeon an ergonomic grip during the operation, minimizing fatigue.

angled tipsColibri Titanium Forceps are an excellent instrument during corneal surgery. The curved tip aides in grasping corneal tissue with minimal trauma or crushing, and are also useful for corneo-scleral suturing. Two different working lengths are available with the forceps depending on surgical preference. Forceps manufactured with a lightweight, titanium alloy body offer advantages for procedures that require delicate precision. They possess greater strength and durability than stainless steel and superior resistance to corrosion, staining and pitting. Titanium forceps are almost half the weight of stainless steel, offering a more tactile feel with minimal fatigue. Finally, blue-colored tint reduces glare and the non-magnetic material resists static buildup.
