Sklar Troutman-Katzin Corneal Transplant Scissors
A corneal transplant scissors with strong curved blades and a fenestrated handle, used to cut corneal tissue precisely during keratoplasty surgery.
The Sklar Troutman-Katzin Corneal Transplant Scissors is built for the fine, controlled cutting required during corneal transplant surgery. Its blades carry a strong curve suited to following the natural curvature of the cornea, and a built-in stop limits how far the blades can open, protecting against accidental over-extension in a very small surgical field.
The handle is fenestrated, an open design that reduces weight and can improve tactile feel during use, and a locking stop feature adds further control during delicate cutting. This listing offers both left and right handed versions, letting surgeons match the instrument to their dominant hand for a natural cutting motion at the operating microscope.
Ophthalmic surgeons performing penetrating or lamellar keratoplasty in eye hospitals and specialist ophthalmic centres rely on this instrument as a dedicated corneal cutting tool. As a reusable, delicate instrument, it is cleaned and steam sterilized between cases with careful attention to its fine blade alignment.
