Maumenee Colibri Forceps FS5-1160 are a type of surgical forceps used in ophthalmology. These forceps are designed to grasp delicate tissues in the eye during surgical procedures, such as cataract surgery, corneal transplants, and retinal surgery.
The 90-degree angled tip of the forceps allows for greater precision and control when working in the confined space of the eye, and the 0.1mm tip allows for a very fine grip. The overall length of the forceps (117mm) is also optimized for use in ophthalmic surgeries.
The forceps are named after Dr. Alfred Maumenee, a pioneering ophthalmologist who developed several surgical instruments for use in eye surgery, including these forceps.
