Utility Scissors

standard pattern, sharp tips, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) 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. The scissors come in straight or curved patterns depending on surgical 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.

miniature pattern, 10.0 mm equal length blades, w/ lock, 4-1/8" (10.5 cm) Troutman-Castroviejo Corneal Section Scissors are a useful tool in performing a sclerocorneal section to gain access to the anterior chamber of the eye or lens during a cataract operation. The extended 10mm blades allow for quick and precise cuts through corneal tissue while reducing operating time. The locking mechanism allows the inner blade to remain stationary depending on physician preference. Both right and left curvature are available on the scissors to accommodate a variety of surgical needs.

medium pattern, blunt tips, strongly curved, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Castroviejo Corneal Scissors are a commonly used tool in ophthalmologic procedures. The medium pattern is designed to quickly and efficiently complete incisions around the cornea to gain access to the anterior chamber. The scissors feature blunt tips designed to reduce trauma to the surrounding sections of the globe. Finally, the strongly curved design allows contouring to the globe surface.
