Frequently asked questions
Does this curette feature a dual-function tip?
Yes, this instrument is specifically designed with a fenestrated, round tip that provides dual functionality:
- Sharp side: Optimized for precise cutting and scraping of the mass.
- Blunt side: Designed for the gentle and clean removal/scooping of the excised material.
Is the stainless steel used suitable for repeated sterilization?
Absolutely. The instrument is constructed from high-quality durable stainless steel, which is specifically designed to withstand repeated autoclave cycles and standard medical sterilization procedures for long-term clinical use.
Is the handle designed for secure handling?
Yes, the handle features a round, knurled texture. This diamond-pattern design is specifically engineered to provide superior tactile feedback and ensure a secure, non-slip grip during delicate ophthalmic procedures.
Is this instrument safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, the Sklar Heath Chalazion Curette is manufactured to be 100% free of natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for surgical environments where latex-free compliance is required.
How does the Heath model compare to other curettes?
The Heath design is distinguished by its specific Sharp/Blunt (S/B) configuration on a single fenestrated ring. Unlike standard curettes that may only have one working edge, the Heath allows the clinician to switch between cutting and scooping without needing to change instruments.

This is a reusable instrument. It is built for longevity and professional-grade performance, allowing it to be cleaned and sterilized between procedures to offer significant long-term value.
Is this curette straight or curved?
