Ophthalmic and micro instruments

Ophthalmic and microsurgical instruments are small, light and very fine: micro scissors, micro forceps, needle holders, eye specula, lens loops and cannulae. They are easily damaged, so careful handling, tip protectors and close inspection are part of their care.

Typical ophthalmic and micro instruments

  • Eye specula and lid retractors
  • Fine tying and capsulorhexis forceps
  • Vannas and micro scissors
  • Castroviejo needle holders and calipers
  • Cannulae and irrigation instruments

Questions

Ophthalmic & Micro FAQs

How should micro instruments be looked after?

Handle them individually, protect the tips with tip guards, and clean and inspect them under magnification. Fine tips are easily bent if instruments are piled together.

What is a Castroviejo needle holder?

It is a spring-handled micro needle holder with or without a lock, used for fine suturing in ophthalmic and microsurgery.

Do you supply instrument trays for micro instruments?

Yes. Ask us about protective trays and tip guards when you order micro instruments.

Can I order by catalogue code?

Yes. Every instrument has a catalogue code (for example SC-GI/035). Send us a list of codes, names or a photo of your tray and we will confirm availability and pricing, usually within one working day.

Can you build a complete set for this specialty?

Yes. We can match an existing tray list or help you put together a new set, supplied with every instrument labelled so it is easy to check and re-order.
