Product Overview
The 558001 CK LASIK Marker is a hyper-precision ophthalmic registration instrument characterized by its 9.5mm external diameter and an integrated target-center reticle. Designed in accordance with elite refractive and Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) protocols, this instrument acts as a critical safeguards template to eliminate decentered treatment zones and optical axis misalignments. Forged from high-tensile surgical steel, the low-profile circular head features a micro-machined crosshair target at its absolute center, ringed by a 9.5mm marking boundary. This dual-action design allows the surgeon to visually lock onto the patient’s visual axis or line of sight while simultaneously registering a perfect peripheral reference path.
Key Features
-
Precision Target-Center Reticle: Features a micro-planed, high-visibility central alignment crosshair. This target geometry enables the surgeon to achieve perfect coaxial centration over the pupil or coaxially sighted corneal light reflex (Purkinje image) prior to marking.
-
True-Circle 9.5mm Marking Diameter: The outer ring is engineered to a strict 9.5mm calibration. When coated with a surgical marking agent (such as gentian violet), it transfers a perfectly concentric, high-visibility reference ring to the epithelium to guide subsequent microkeratome or femtosecond laser placement.
-
Atraumatic Low-Profile Radiused Fins: The marking borders and central elements are hand-polished and micro-beveled into a blunt profile. This architecture transfers a crisp, thin ink pattern onto the cornea without causing epithelial erosions or compromising the basement membrane.
-
Ergonomic Stabilizing Handle: Equipped with a balanced tactile handle that absorbs micro-tremors and prevents lateral twisting. This rigid handle configuration allows the operator to execute a vertical, uniform stamp-down application with perfectly calibrated counter-pressure.
-
Surgical-Grade Resilience: Manufactured from premium, hardened stainless steel. It is built to maintain its hyper-precise 9.5mm ring tolerances, crosshair alignment, and structural configuration through thousands of high-heat sterilization cycles.
