A hand-held manual ophthalmic surgical instrument with small blades designed to grasp and manipulate ophthalmic implants (excluding sutures) during implantation/explantation; it is not intended for use on tissues. Its design may be tweezers-like, or it may be probe-like with a proximal handle, a thin cannula-like shaft, and small grasping blades that protrude from the distal end of the shaft. This is a single-use device.
