Enhanced Precision:
Fine tips allow for accurate grasping and manipulation of delicate sutures (5-0 to 8-0 caliber) used in microsurgery.
Enables greater control during suturing in tight spaces like the eye.
Reduced Trauma:
Delicate jaws minimize tissue damage while suturing due to their smooth design.
This is crucial for promoting optimal healing, especially in sensitive areas like the eye.
Improved Dexterity:
Pen-like grip provides a comfortable and natural hold, reducing hand fatigue during long procedures.
This allows for better control and maneuverability of the needle holder.
Efficient Suturing:
Self-locking mechanism frees up a hand, allowing the surgeon to focus on needle placement and knot tying.
Easy unlocking minimizes the risk of dislodging the needle during suture manipulation.
Non-Slip Grip:
Tungsten carbide inserts on the jaws ensure a secure hold on the needle, preventing accidental slippage.
This is vital for maintaining precision and reducing the need for repetitive adjustments.
