Lieppman Nucleus Spatula – Precision for Cataract Surgery

The Lieppman nucleus spatula is a specialized ophthalmic instrument designed for gentle manipulation of the crystalline lens nucleus during cataract surgery. Its 4¾-inch (10.0 cm) round handle offers a comfortable, secure grip, while the angled 0.5 mm blunt forked tip allows controlled engagement of the nucleus without sharp edges. Ideal for hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and clinics across the United States, this spatula supports precise maneuvering in the operating room. The blunt forked design helps minimize trauma to surrounding tissues, making it a reliable choice for surgeons performing phacoemulsification or manual small-incision cataract surgery. Built for durability and repeated sterilization, it meets the demands of modern ophthalmic practice.
