The Meyerhoefer Chalazion Curette FS4-1000 is a surgical instrument used in ophthalmology for the treatment of chalazia, small cysts or lumps that develop on the eyelid due to a blocked oil gland. With a 1.5mm tip and 132mm overall length, the FS4-1000 is designed to remove the contents of the chalazion through a small incision in the eyelid.
The slender shaft of the instrument allows for comfortable access to harder-to-reach areas of the eyelid, while the small spoon-shaped tip is designed to fit under the conjunctiva to scrape and remove the hardened oil and debris that make up the chalazion. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and may require the use of stitches after the chalazion is removed.
It is important to note that the Meyerhoefer Chalazion Curette FS4-1000 is a specialized surgical instrument that requires proper training and experience to use effectively and safely. Only skilled ophthalmologists or trained healthcare professionals should use this instrument for the treatment of chalazia.
