Description

Sklarlite Iris Scissors are a lighter version of the standard Sklar Iris Scissors. A unique manufacturing process developed by Sklar shaves microns off standard and delicate pattern instruments while maintaining structural integrity and durability. This lightweight modification provides the surgeon with greater control and less fatigue. Originally designed for ophthalmic procedures, Iris Scissors have become a multipurpose instrument used in various surgical environments. These fine, sharp, finger ring scissors are ideal for detailed dissection of fine tissue and fine suture removal. In addition to ophthalmic procedures, Iris Scissors are now often used in emergency rooms and for OB/GYN and dermatologic procedures. This product is curved with smooth, sharp/sharp tips and measures 4-1/2 inches in length.
