3.5" (8.9 cm)Desmarres Chalazion Forceps are a commonly used tool in diseases of the eyelid. The forceps are meant to expose a chalazion or other cysts of the lid.

round handle, 6.0 mm platform w/ cross-serrations at tip, 4-1/2" (11.4 cm)Catalano Micro Tying Forceps are an ideal tool during ophthalmologic procedures and post-operative care. 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.

The forceps are designed to fold the IOL either horizontally or longitudinally to allow for easier implantation. The rounded soft curve of the forceps aids in gripping the IOL with minimal damage or alteration. The angled tips provide increased visibility during the procedure.

The forceps are designed to handle the long needle necessary for iris suturing, commonly used with 10-0 polypropelene or 4-0 silk sutures. The cross-serrated tips provided additional grip and ensure minimal slippage during the procedure.
