Osher Nucleus Manipulator: Precision for Ophthalmic Surgery

The Osher nucleus manipulator is a specialized ophthalmic instrument designed to provide superior control during cataract surgery. Featuring a 4.5-degree angled shaft and a precise 10.0mm distance from the bend to the tip, this tool ensures optimal access to the lens nucleus. The distinctive K-shaped round tip, measuring 5.0 cm in length, allows surgeons to effectively manipulate and rotate dense nuclei with minimal trauma to surrounding ocular tissues. Engineered for reliability in high-volume hospital and ambulatory surgical center settings, this manipulator enhances procedural efficiency and safety. Its ergonomic design supports steady hand positioning, reducing surgeon fatigue during complex cases while maintaining clear visualization of the surgical field.

• Rotating and manipulating hard or dense cataract nuclei during phacoemulsification procedures.
• Providing counter-traction to stabilize the lens capsule during intricate surgical maneuvers.
• Facilitating controlled dissection of adhesions between the iris and the anterior lens capsule.
• Enhancing precision in manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) techniques.
• Supporting safe nucleus delivery into the anterior chamber during extracapsular extraction.

Specifications
