Surgical Scissors 10.0 cm (4")

Controlled Access for Precise Corneal Tissue Cutting

Troutman-Katzin corneal transplant scissors are designed for cutting tasks in corneal transplantation, with a compact 4 1/8" format that supports controlled handling in confined operative areas. The small profile, strongly curved left blades, and blunt tips help position the instrument for focused access while reducing the chance of an unnecessarily sharp tip contacting adjacent structures. A flat 3-hole handle provides multiple finger positions, and the integrated lock supports consistent control during use. Suitable for ophthalmic workflows and adaptable to relevant general and plastic surgery applications, these scissors provide a purpose-specific configuration for delicate tissue-cutting tasks without adding unnecessary bulk.

Use Cases

• Cutting tasks associated with corneal transplantation and ophthalmic tissue handling.
• Handling procedures that benefit from blunt-tipped scissors for controlled positioning near adjacent tissue.
• Supporting general surgery workflows requiring a small, curved scissor configuration.
• Supporting plastic surgery workflows involving focused cutting and controlled instrument handling.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess according to the facility's validated protocol and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the blades, blunt tips, pivot, lock, and 3-hole handle before and after use for damage, residue, or impaired movement.
• Handle the strongly curved blades carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help prevent distortion or contact damage.
• Store the scissors in a protected manner that avoids pressure on the blades and keeps the lock and handle free from obstruction.
