Description

Merit Sterile Metzenbaum-Lahey Dissecting Scissors are most commonly used for dissecting and cutting tissue. These scissors are not recommended for cutting sutures, drains, or heavy tissue. Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors tend to be shorter than traditional Metzenbaum scissors. Metzenbaum Scissors are identifiable by their long, thin shanks and jaws that are relatively short. They also have fine, blunt, rounded tips. Merit Sterile instruments are ready-to-use, sterile, disposable, office-grade instruments most commonly utilized for routine and in-office minor procedures. They are sold in bulk quantities.
