Product Overview
The New Orleans Lens Loop 5 1/4" Smooth is specially designed for expressing, supporting, and delivering the lens nucleus during extracapsular and intracapsular cataract extraction procedures. Its smooth wire loop tip gently cradles and guides the lens nucleus through the corneal incision with even, distributed pressure across the nucleus surface, allowing surgeons to perform controlled and atraumatic lens delivery while minimizing the risk of capsular damage, zonular stress, or trauma to surrounding intraocular structures throughout the lens expression maneuver.
Manufactured from high-grade German surgical stainless steel, this lens loop features a well-proportioned 5 1/4" lightweight ergonomic handle that provides excellent reach into the anterior chamber and comfortable, precise tactile control during the lens expression procedure. Its smooth loop geometry makes it particularly well suited for softer lens nuclei and cases where gentle, atraumatic contact with the nucleus surface is a critical requirement for safe and successful lens delivery without intraocular tissue disruption.
