Iris Tissue Forceps 8.2 cm (3.2)

Controlled Access for Precise Capsulorhexis Handling

Utrata capsulorhexis forceps are designed for controlled grasping and manipulation during capsulorhexis work, supporting precise handling in ophthalmic procedures and related specialty instrument workflows. The 3 1/4-inch length, vaulted shafts, and 13.0mm span from bend to tip provide a defined working profile for access near the operative field. Utrata-style tips support focused engagement, while iris stop platforms and a flat handle help guide consistent positioning during use. Constructed from titanium, these forceps combine a purpose-specific configuration with a lightweight instrument design suited to professional surgical settings, including general surgery departments supporting ophthalmic cases.

Use Cases

• Ophthalmic procedures: grasp and manipulate the capsular flap during capsulorhexis work.
• Use the vaulted shafts to maintain a defined approach to the operative field while working near delicate ocular structures.
• Use the Utrata-style tips for focused engagement of the capsule during controlled instrument movements.
• Use the iris stop platforms to help limit instrument travel during positioning and manipulation.
• General Surgery instrument workflows: organize and handle the forceps as part of specialty ophthalmic case setup and operative instrument care.
