Product Overview
The 651000 Capsulorhexis Forceps are high-precision ophthalmic microsurgical forceps characterized by their vaulted, micro-thin curved shafts, specialized grasping tips, and an advanced flat cross-action handle. The innovative cross-action (reverse-action) design mechanism ensures that the instrument shafts remain closed at the incision point while the jaw tips open and close internally. Forged from high-tensile surgical steel, this configuration completely eliminates wound gaping, maximizing viscoelastic retention and maintaining a stable anterior chamber throughout high-magnification maneuvers.
Key Features
-
Advanced Cross-Action Mechanism: Engineered with a reverse-spring crossover architecture. Pressing the handle opens the jaws inside the eye, while releasing or easing pressure closes them. This prevents the shafts from expanding at the incision site, virtually eliminating wound stretching and fluid leakage.
-
Ultra-Thin Vaulted Geometry: The shafts feature a specialized low-profile curve and micro-thin width. This design minimizes structural volume inside the anterior chamber, preserving space and optimizing visualization through the surgical microscope.
-
Non-Compromising Cap-Grasp Tips: Hand-finished, micro-milled tips are engineered to grasp the lens capsule flawlessly without piercing or tearing prematurely. This provides the precise mechanical authority needed to control the tearing vector during critical phases of a CCC.
-
Ergonomic Flat Handle: Designed with a classic, low-profile flat spring handle with strategic cutout windows. This provides a highly balanced, lightweight feel that prevents finger fatigue and ensures the instrument remains completely stable against lateral rotation.
