Scheie Anterior Chamber Cannula
blunt, 27-gauge, 3/4" (2.0 cm)Scheie Anterior Chamber Cannula is a frequently used tool in cataract extraction procedures. The small gauge cannula is nimble enough to fit into a small limbal incision accessing the anterior chamber. It may be used to aspirate fluid within the anterior chamber exposing the lens capsule.
Scheie Aspirating Cataract Needle
Schepens Orbital Retractor
smooth 14.0 mm x 57.0 mm blade w/ notched end, 4.5 mm wide notch, 6" (15.0 cm)Â Schepens Orbital Retractor is a tool used in select retinal detachment cases. The retractor is especially useful in performing the scleral buckle procedure, in which the sclera is pushed against the detached retina to heal together.
Serrefine Forceps
10.0 mm tying platform, 1.0 mm of tip cross-serrated, angled, 3-1/8" (8.0 cm)Serrefine Forceps are a commonly used tool in a number of ophthalmologic procedures. The forceps are designed to clamp off bleeding points from micro vessels during an operation. The forceps are available in two different blade lengths as well as straight or curved models as desired.
Sheets Iris Hook
0.3 mm hook w/ guard, 5-1/8" (13.0 cm)Â Sheets Iris Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures and operations needing access to the lens capsule. The 0.3mm hook provides extra fine control in retracting only the desired portion of iris. In addition, the hook comes available with a guard to protect from damaging surrounding tissue.
Sheets Irrigating Vectus
ports at 3, 9, & 12 o'clock w/ serrations on top of 6.0 mm x 10.0 mm loop, 21-gauge  Sheets Irrigating Vectus is a useful tool for cataract and lens extraction procedures. The loop is instated between the nucleus and the posterior capsule; fluid is allowed to pass into this space to allow for easier removal of the lens. Three irrigation ports provide ample fluid distribution, while serrations on the loop allow for sure grip of lens tissue.
Sheets-McPherson Tying Forceps
10.0 mm tying platform, 1.0 mm of tip cross-serrated, angled, 3-1/8" (8.0 cm)Â Sheets-McPherson Tying Forceps are a useful tool in ophthalmologic procedures, particularly cataract surgeries. The 1.0mm cross serrations at the tip provide increased grip for handling the anterior capsular flap during removal of the native lens. The ribbed handle provides a more ergonomic grip during the procedure.
Shepard Intraocular Lens Forceps
curved shafts, slide lock, 1.5 mm upper & 2.0 mm lower serrated jaws, 3 5?8" (9.2cm)Â Shepard Intraocular Lens Forceps are a unique tool used in artificial lens implantation techniques. The cross action jaw combined with serrated tips help in the controlled grasping of the IOL. The rounded soft curve of the forceps aids in gripping the IOL with minimal damage or alteration. In addition, the forceps feature finger holes in the handle to adjust traction and grip during the procedure.
Shepard Iris Hook
1.0 mm, blunt, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm)Â Shepard Iris Hook is a commonly used tool in cataract surgeries. The hook is used to retract a portion of the iris tissue to gain access to the lens capsule. Often, multiple hooks are used at different positions around the iris and anchored, providing adequate visualization for lens removal. The hook features a blunt tip to minimize extraneous tissue damage.
Shepard Tying Forceps
wide handle, 4.0 mm tying platform, 4-1/4" (10.8 cm)Â Shepard Tying Forceps are a useful instrument in a variety of cataract procedures for both the handling of delicate capsular tissue and suturing equipment. The wide handle and 4.0 mm tying platform allows for deft handling of both eye tissue and sterile material. Straight and 45 degree angled profiles are available depending on surgical preference.
