The Titanium Barraquer Cilia Forceps is a surgical instrument commonly used in ophthalmology for the removal of eyelashes during certain eyelid surgical procedures.
During eyelid surgery, the forceps are used to grasp and gently pull out individual eyelashes, allowing the surgeon to access the underlying tissue or to remove a specific eyelash that may be causing irritation or other problems. The titanium construction of the forceps provides strength and durability, while the Barraquer design allows for a secure grip and control during the procedure.
The forceps are specifically designed with a delicate and precise tip, which makes them ideal for use in small and delicate areas of the eyelid. This feature allows for more controlled and targeted manipulation of the eyelashes, minimizing the risk of damage to surrounding tissue.
The Barraquer Cilia Forceps can also be used for other eyelid surgical procedures, such as the removal of foreign bodies or excision of small lesions. They are an important tool for ophthalmologists and other eye surgeons who specialize in eyelid surgery.
