Iris Scissors – Spring Handle

wide handle, curved blunt tips, 5-1/2" (14.0 cm)  Westcott Tenotomy Scissors are a commonly used tool in ophthalmologic procedures. The scissors are designed to cut the tendonous insertion of the extra-ocular muscles or for the incision of Tenon's capsule. The wide, spring loaded handle of the scissors is designed to reduce physician fatigue while providing increased control. The scissors are available in either a right or left handed model depending on physician preference.

curved, sharp tips, 3-1/3" (8.5 cm) McPherson-Vannas Micro Iris Scissors are a multipurpose tool used in ophthalmologic and general surgery procedures. The scissors may be used for manipulating and incising tissue in an iridectomy or iridotomy. The spring loaded design with widely spaced handle gives the surgeon optimal control during the procedure, while the micro pattern affords the surgeon maximal precision. In addition, the curved sharp tip aids in dissection while accommodating to the patient's natural curvature.

blunt tips, 4-1/8" (10.5 cm) Troutman-Katzin Corneal Transplant Scissors are a useful tool during Keratoplasty operations. The miniature pattern of the blades allows for precise incisions of the corneal tissue. The scissors feature a locking mechanism to immobilize the inner blade, allowing the surgeon more control during the procedure. The blunt tips are designed to reduce trauma to extraneous tissue.

curved, sharp blades, 8.0mm, 4" (10.2 cm) Castroviejo Scissors are a general purpose tool in a variety of ophthalmologic procedures. The spring action design allows for the delicate incision of tissue and is commonly used during Mohs procedures. The sharp blades allow for quick and accurate cuts with minimal extraneous damage. The curved profile of the blades allows for the contouring to the globe or periorbital surface.
