Bechert-McPherson Tying Forceps

angled tipsColibri Titanium Forceps are an excellent instrument during corneal surgery. The curved tip aides in grasping corneal tissue with minimal trauma or crushing, and are also useful for corneo-scleral suturing. Two different working lengths are available with the forceps depending on surgical preference. Forceps manufactured with a lightweight, titanium alloy body offer advantages for procedures that require delicate precision. They possess greater strength and durability than stainless steel and superior resistance to corrosion, staining and pitting. Titanium forceps are almost half the weight of stainless steel, offering a more tactile feel with minimal fatigue. Finally, blue-colored tint reduces glare and the non-magnetic material resists static buildup.

angled, smooth jaws, 10.0 mm tying platform, 3-1/8" (8.0 cm) Barraquer Cilia Forceps are an ideal tool for ophthalmologic procedures involving the eyelid.

The micro profile along with cross serrations are ideal for gripping suturing equipment as well as delicate tissue. The extended length allows access to difficult to reach areas, while the round handle is designed to reduce physician fatigue during the procedure. The forceps are available angled or straight depending on surgeon preference.
