Sklar Bangerter Cyclodialysis Spatula, 10mm
A fine 10mm ophthalmic spatula used to create and explore the cyclodialysis cleft during glaucoma and related intraocular surgery. It is supplied for repeated sterilization and reuse in hospital and clinic settings.
The Sklar Bangerter Cyclodialysis Spatula is a fine ophthalmic instrument with a 10mm blade, used to create and gently explore the cyclodialysis cleft, a surgical opening between the ciliary body and sclera used in certain glaucoma procedures and related intraocular manipulations. The thin, blunt tipped blade is designed to separate tissue planes with minimal trauma, sliding through delicate ocular structures without cutting them, which is essential when working so close to the ciliary body and other structures responsible for aqueous humour production and drainage.
This listing includes three configurations of the spatula, giving the ophthalmic surgeon a choice suited to the specific procedure and anatomical approach being used. Instruments of this kind are used almost exclusively by ophthalmic surgeons performing glaucoma surgery and other anterior segment procedures where controlled tissue separation within the eye is required.
It is a delicate, precision instrument that is handled and reprocessed with particular care as part of a dedicated ophthalmic surgical set.
