Barraquer lid speculum 1 1/2 adult size heavy 14.0mm closed wire blades 18.0mm blade spread, nasal approach

Controlled Lid Retraction for Consistent Procedural Access

Its adult-size, heavy construction and closed wire blades support deliberate handling, while the 18.0 mm blade spread provides a defined working opening. The 1 1/2-inch pattern and nasal approach are suited to workflows where instrument orientation and access direction matter. It can be incorporated into ophthalmic procedures and selected ENT or general surgery settings involving periocular access, helping teams maintain an organized approach without relying on manual lid retraction throughout the task.

Use Cases

• Support eyelid retraction during ophthalmic procedures where a stable working opening is required.
• Use the nasal approach when instrument orientation needs to accommodate access from the nasal side.
• In ENT workflows, assist with controlled periocular access when the operative field involves the eyelid or adjacent facial region.
• In general surgery settings, provide hands-free lid positioning for procedures involving appropriate periocular access.
• Use the closed wire blades to maintain a defined retraction profile while positioning the instrument with deliberate control.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the closed wire blades, frame, and working surfaces before and after use for distortion, damage, or residue.
• Handle the wire blades carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to preserve their intended shape and alignment.
• Store the speculum in a manner that protects the blades from contact, bending, or impact.
