Product Overview
The Elschnig Fixation Forceps are specially designed for grasping, holding, and fixating soft tissues of the globe during ophthalmic surgical procedures. Their small tapered tips with 1x2 angular Elschnig-style sharp teeth provide precise access to the narrow spaces within the eye, delivering a secure and reliable grip on conjunctival and episcleral tissues while keeping the globe firmly stabilized throughout the procedure. The tweezer-shaped narrow handle design ensures accurate tissue manipulation and comfortable control during both routine and complex eye surgeries.
Manufactured from high-grade German surgical stainless steel, these forceps are highly durable, easy to operate, and fully reusable after sterilization. Available with and without a catch mechanism, they accommodate varying surgical preferences for hands-free locking or unrestricted spring-action tissue handling.
