The ultra-fine tips of this cross action forceps are ideal for todays small incision procedures, even with sub-2mm coaxial phaco incisions. The mildly sharpened tips allow the surgeon to puncture the capsule without the need to open with a cystotome. By slightly tilting the forceps and entering the capsule with one tip, the surgeon can then close the forceps to securely grab the lens capsule for Capsulorhexis formation. The iris stop feature allows the surgeon excellent grasp of the capsule without engaging the iris. Gently curved tip follows the intra-ocular anatomical contour and the modified round handle allows for comfortable hand position during the capsulotomy. The cross action handle allows for excellent alignment of the fine tips, reducing wound gape, loss of viscoelastic and AC shallowing. Marks on shafts 2.5mm and 5.0mm from tip end.
