Titanium MICS Capsulorhexis Forceps FT5-1613 are surgical instruments used in ophthalmology, specifically during cataract surgery.
The acronym “MICS” stands for “Micro-Incision Cataract Surgery,” which refers to a minimally invasive surgical technique for cataract removal. During MICS, a very small incision is made in the cornea, and the cataract is removed through this incision.
The Titanium MICS Capsulorhexis Forceps are designed to create a small, precise opening in the front portion of the lens capsule, allowing for the removal of the cataract. The forceps have a curved or angled design, and a fine tip that allows for precise manipulation of the lens capsule.
The use of titanium in the construction of these forceps makes them lightweight, strong, and resistant to corrosion, which is important for instruments that will be used repeatedly in surgical procedures. The MICS Capsulorhexis Forceps are a specialized tool used by some surgeons who prefer the improved precision and smaller incisions that can be achieved with MICS cataract surgery.
