Sklar Edge TC Iris Scissors, Straight
A four and a half inch straight tungsten carbide iris scissors with sharp points, used for fine, precise cutting during ophthalmic and general surgery.
The Sklar Edge Iris Scissors is a small, sharp-pointed scissors designed for fine, precise cutting where control matters more than reach, a role the iris scissors pattern is closely associated with in ophthalmic surgery as well as other fields requiring delicate tissue work. Its tungsten carbide cutting edges hold their sharpness through more procedures than an equivalent plain stainless steel scissors, an important quality for a small instrument used repeatedly on fine tissue.
This listing covers two curvature variants, curved and straight, both at four and a half inches with sharp points, letting the surgeon choose the pattern that best suits the angle of the tissue or structure being cut. Iris scissors of this kind are used by ophthalmic, plastic and ENT surgeons and their assistants during procedures involving small incisions or the fine division of tissue and sutures.
As a tungsten carbide instrument, it is handled with the additional care appropriate to precision cutting tools, while being built for repeated sterilisation and continued clinical use.
