World Precision Instrument Iris Forceps, 10cm, Straight, 1x2 Teeth, German
Supplier: World Precision Instrument 15916G
Iris forceps are a pair of surgical forceps (tweezers) often used in ophthalmic procedures. In the early 1800s, a Johann Friedrich Horner, a German ophthalmologist, began design surgical instruments specifically for use in the eye. The result of his work became one of the earliest iris forceps. Iris forceps are a small pair of forceps with a fine pointed tip for grasping delicate tissue with minimal trauma. The narrow jaws of these surgical forceps allow for fine manipulation of structures like the iris of the eye. These forceps are 10cm long with 0.8mm tips, and they come with straight or curved tips. These Iris Forceps have teeth (1x2). One blade has one tooth and the other has two. The blades align so that the teeth fit together. If the tissue to be grasped is slippery or hard to hold, surgical forceps with teeth offer a firmer grasp. However, the teeth may cause some tissue damage.
