Product Overview
The 551225 LASIK Retreatment Forceps are high-precision ophthalmic microsurgical forceps characterized by their specialized 0.50mm micro-profile and 1×2 interlocking teeth configuration. Engineered specifically to address the clinical challenges of secondary refractive enhancements, this instrument is designed to safely engage and lift the edge of a previously healed LASIK flap. Forged from high-tensile surgical steel, the micro-machined tips feature a delicate 1×2 tooth configuration that locks together with flawless mechanical alignment. This allows the surgeon to gain an ultra-secure, slip-free purchase on the fused flap margin with minimal structural footprint, facilitating a smooth, controlled separation along the original interface path without tearing the delicate corneal epithelium.
Key Features
-
Micro 0.50mm 1×2 Teeth Configuration: Features a hand-honed micro-profile with 1 interlocking tooth on one side and 2 on the opposing jaw. This precise micro-geometry provides the perfect biting authority needed to catch and cleanly elevate the tightly adhered edge of a healed corneal flap.
-
Targeted Atraumative Traction: Despite the presence of micro-teeth, the 0.50mm surface area is specifically engineered to distribute focal tension evenly. This minimizes localized stress on the tissue, ensuring a clean lift without shredding the flap or scarring the stromal bed.
-
Enhanced High-Magnification Sightlines: The ultra-slender forward shafts and low-profile tip assembly reduce structural obstruction within the operative zone, ensuring the surgeon maintains a completely clear, continuous line of sight through the surgical microscope.
-
Ergonomic Spring Handle: Features a lightweight, responsive spring handle integrated with strategic tactile grounding zones. This premium architecture eliminates lateral twisting, mitigates finger tremors, and provides exceptional tactile feedback during high-finesse tissue lifting.
-
Surgical-Grade Resilience: Manufactured from premium, hardened stainless steel. It is built to maintain its hyper-precise tooth coordination, razor-sharp alignment, and responsive spring calibration through thousands of high-heat sterilization cycles.
