Description

Econo Vannas scissors are double spring thumb scissors most commonly used in ophthalmic procedures such as iridectomy and capsulotomy, but also used in some vascular procedures or to cut 10-0 and 9-0 sutures. The 6mm, delicate blades are available straight, curved, or angled. Econo instruments are Sklar's floor-grade, disposable instruments. Made in Pakistan, they offer the greatest utility at the lowest cost. Econo instruments eliminate the need for cleaning and reprocessing. Because they are disposable, Econo instruments also reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination. Econo instruments are available in bulk quantities.
