Mellinger Lid Speculum for Infant Ophthalmic Procedures

The Mellinger lid speculum is a specialized ophthalmic instrument designed for infant eye examinations and procedures. With a 2 1/8 inch (20.0 cm) overall length and 12.5 mm closed wire blades, it provides gentle, controlled eyelid retraction for neonatal and pediatric patients. The nasal approach and self-locking mechanism allow for secure positioning during surgery or examination, reducing the need for manual assistance. Ideal for hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and clinics, this speculum supports precise visualization in procedures such as retinopathy of prematurity screening, foreign body removal, and other anterior segment interventions. Its wire blades are designed to minimize trauma while maintaining a clear surgical field.
