1.0 mm, blunt, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm) Shepard 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 hook features a blunt tip to minimize extraneous tissue damage.

9.0 mm shaft, 90 degrees angled 2.0 mm tip, curved, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Lewicky Lens Manipulating Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures. The hook is used to manipulate the opacified native lens during a phacoemulsification procedure. The extended length of the hook combined with the angled tip minimizes surgical obstruction during the procedure.

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.

0.75 mm hook, angled, 4-3/4" (12.0 cm) Hirschman Iris Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures and operations needing access to the lens capsule. The 0.75mm hook provides fine control while retracting only a selected portion of iris tissue. A blunted tip assures minimal tissue damage to the surrounding globe.
