Clayman Iris Hook

0.15 mm v-shaped angled tip, flat handle, 4-3/4" (12.0 cm) Jaffe-Maltzman Lens Manipulating Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures. The hook features a "V" shaped design for adjustable traction and stability while manipulating the lens into a desired position. The flat handle provides a sure grip during the operation.

angled shaft w/ 1.5 mm tip, 4-1/3" (11.2 cm) Koch Stop & Chop Manipulator is a tool used exclusively for cataract procedures. The manipulator is used to facilitate the stop and chop technique, in which the lens nucleus is initially sculpted and then chopped into smaller pieces for extraction. The angled shaft aids in accessing the lens capsule.

0.25 mm diameter, blunt tip, angled Harris-Sinskey Lens Manipulating Hook is a useful tool in cataract procedures. The hook may be used to maneuver lens tissue in order to facilitate extraction of the opacified tissue. The smaller diameter hook affords the surgeon increased control during the procedure. In addition, the blunt tip ensures minimal tissue damage or posterior capsule tear.

0.5 mm hook, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm) Knolle Iris Hook is a commonly used tool in cataract surgeries. The hook is used to retract a portion of the iris tissue to gain access to the lens capsule. Often, multiple hooks are used at different positions around the iris and anchored, providing adequate visualization for lens removal. The Knolle hook has a slender tip for more selective retraction while featuring a serrated handle for an improved grip.
