Hirschman Iris Hook

push-pull pattern, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Kuglen Iris Hook & Lens Manipulator is a multipurpose tool used in a variety of cataract procedures. The rounded button end is delicate enough to retract iris tissue to expose the anterior capsule of the lens. In addition, the instrument can be used to maneuver the lens into an ideal position for retraction. Both straight and angled models are available depending on physician preference.

flat handle, 5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Green Strabismus hook is a commonly used instrument in performing procedures involving the ocular muscles. The hook can be used to elevate the muscle tissue for dissection and reattachment. The toe of the hook is designed to press against the sclera and "ski" along the surface until the full muscle width has been discerned.

1.0 mm, blunt, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm) 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.

5-1/4" (13.5 cm) Double Fixation Hook is a useful tool in ophthalmic and occuloplastic procedures. The instrument may be used to atraumatically fix the lid or other skin flaps for manipulation of deeper tissues. Two different hook widths are available depending on surgical preference and patient variation.
