Osher “Y” Hook Lens Manipulator

straight shaft, 0.5 mm hook, blunt, 4-3/4" (12.0 cm) Kuglen Iris Hook & Lens Manipulator is a unique tool in cataract procedures. The tool may be used to pull the delicate iris tissue to expose the deeper lens capsule. In addition, the instrument is also meant to maneuver the native lens into a desirable position of phacoemulsification.

5-1/4" (13.5 cm) Double Fixation Hook is a useful tool in ophthalmic and occuloplastic procedures. The instrument may be used to atraumatically fix the lid or other skin flaps for manipulation of deeper tissues. Two different hook widths are available depending on surgical preference and patient variation.

flat handle, 5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Green Strabismus hook is a commonly used instrument in performing procedures involving the ocular muscles. The hook can be used to elevate the muscle tissue for dissection and reattachment. The toe of the hook is designed to press against the sclera and "ski" along the surface until the full muscle width has been discerned.

0.5 mm hook, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm) Knolle Iris Hook is a commonly used tool in cataract surgeries. The hook is used to retract a portion of the iris tissue to gain access to the lens capsule. Often, multiple hooks are used at different positions around the iris and anchored, providing adequate visualization for lens removal. The Knolle hook has a slender tip for more selective retraction while featuring a serrated handle for an improved grip.
