Product Overview
The 554029 Double Ended Iris Spatula is a hyper-precision ophthalmic microsurgical instrument characterized by its dual-ended repositor architecture, hand-polished atraumatic smooth edges, and a central tactile stabilizing grip. Engineered to operate with fluid predictability under high-magnification surgical microscopes, this instrument serves as a critical reconstruction tool during complex cataract extractions, penetrating keratoplasties, or open-globe trauma repairs. Forged from high-tensile surgical steel, both functional ends feature micro-machined, ultra-thin flexible blades designed to slide seamlessly parallel to the iris plane. This allows the surgeon to gently sweep incarcerations out of wound margins and guide the iris back into its natural anatomical position without stripping the pigment epithelium or inciting intraocular bleeding.
Key Features
-
Dual-Ended Repositor Efficiency: Features two micro-calibrated spatula ends integrated onto a single handle core, allowing the surgeon to quickly adapt to different surgical approaches or anatomical angles without changing instruments.
-
Atraumatic Micro-Planed Blades: The working tips are hand-buffed to a perfectly smooth, non-cutting profile with rounded corners. This protective geometry safely contacts the delicate iris stroma and corneal endothelium without risking abrasions or structural tearing.
-
Micro-Flexible Tactile Core: The spatula blades possess a calibrated mechanical spring-temper. This subtle flexibility provides exceptional tactile feedback, allowing the operator to feel subtle tissue resistance and prevent excessive force inside the anterior chamber.
-
Central Grounded Grip Zone: Designed with a flat, textured central handle section that serves as an ergonomic stabilization platform. This architecture suppresses micro-tremors and prevents lateral hand twisting or rotational slipping within the surgical glove.
-
Surgical-Grade Resilience: Manufactured from premium, hardened stainless steel. It is built to maintain its hyper-precise blade flatness, inline shaft alignment, and smooth surface fluidics through thousands of high-heat autoclave sterilization cycles.
