Device description
Duet-style MICS Hoffman Descemet's stripping forceps, 1 3/8'', 23 gauge, curved shaft, 16.0mm from hub to tips, sharp grasping tips, for use with Ambler #6100T
A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to facilitate the grasping, manipulation, or clamping of, and/or removal of foreign bodies from, ophthalmic soft-tissues (ocular tissues, eyelids), and may be pointed for capsulorhexis. It has a conventional (self-opening) or reverse-action (self-closing) tweezers-like design with variously designed tips, whereby the blades are designed to be opened/closed by squeezing between the fingers (i.e., without ring handles); it is not probe-like in design (i.e., not cannulated). It is typically made of metal, available in various sizes, and may have carbide inserts at the working end. This is a reusable device intended to be sterilized prior to use.
