The Titanium Seibel II Intralase Flap Lifter & Retreatment Spatula is a surgical instrument commonly used in ophthalmology for refractive surgery procedures such as LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis).
During a LASIK procedure, a corneal flap is created using a microkeratome or femtosecond laser, and the flap is lifted to allow access to the underlying corneal tissue for the application of the laser. The Titanium Seibel II Intralase Flap Lifter & Retreatment Spatula is used to lift the corneal flap and hold it in place while the laser is applied.
This spatula is also used in the retreatment of corneal flaps, where the flap needs to be lifted again to correct or enhance the original LASIK procedure. The instrument is made of titanium, which is strong, lightweight, and biocompatible, making it suitable for use in surgical procedures.
