Capsule forceps for doctor, clinic and hospital supplies

Capsule Forceps: Precision in Cataract and Lens Surgery

Capsule forceps are specialized instruments used in eye surgery, particularly for procedures involving the lens capsule of the eye. They are primarily designed to remove the lens capsule – a thin, transparent membrane surrounding the eye's lens – piece by piece or to precisely open it. These forceps are indispensable in cataract surgery (treatment of cloudy lenses) and the implantation of intraocular lenses (IOLs).

Features and Design

• Slim Build: Capsule forceps are characterized by their slender and fine design, which allows access to the confined space of the eye without damaging surrounding tissue.

• Sharp Tips: The tips are typically sharply ground to enable precise and controlled cuts or grasping motions. This is particularly important to avoid injuring the delicate lens capsule.

• Ergonomics: The handles are often anatomically shaped, providing surgeons with comfortable handling and optimal control during procedures.

• Materials: Made from stainless surgical steel, capsule forceps are durable, sterilizable, and corrosion-resistant.

Applications

Capsule forceps are primarily used in the following procedures:

1. Cataract Surgery: For removing the cloudy lens and opening the lens capsule to make space for the implantation of an artificial lens.

2. Intraocular Lens Implantation: For the precise placement of the lens within the capsule.

3. Capsulorhexis: For creating a circular opening in the anterior lens capsule, a critical step in modern cataract surgery.
