Gill Iris Forceps | Ddpeliteusa

Introduction

DDP Elite USA Gills Iris Forceps are meticulously crafted instruments designed for the delicate handling of iris tissue during ophthalmologic surgeries, including iridectomy and iris repair. This particular model stands out due to its strongly curved shaft, which is designed to accommodate the natural curvature of the iris, allowing for more precise manipulation of the tissue. The forceps are also equipped with 1x2 teeth that gently grip the iris without causing trauma. These teeth drop below the level of the shaft when the forceps are closed, ensuring minimal protrusion and reducing the risk of damaging surrounding tissues.

Combining ergonomic design with precision, these forceps offer ophthalmologists the control and comfort needed for successful iris manipulation during a variety of eye surgeries.

Key Features Gill Iris Forceps

Strongly Curved Shaft 

The Gills Iris Forceps feature a specially designed, strongly curved shaft that perfectly accommodates the natural curvature of the iris. This ergonomic feature allows the surgeon to access the tissue with greater precision, making it easier to manipulate the iris during surgeries like iridectomy or iris reconstruction. The curve ensures that the forceps follow the anatomical contours of the iris, improving the surgeon’s reach and comfort while reducing the risk of unnecessary tissue disruption.

1x2 Teeth 

Equipped with 1x2 teeth, these forceps provide a secure grip on the delicate iris tissue. The teeth are designed to be gentle yet firm, ensuring that the iris can be manipulated without causing undue trauma. The 1x2 teeth are particularly beneficial for tasks that require precision, such as positioning or repositioning the iris during surgery.

Teeth Drop Below Shaft Level 

A key feature of the Gills Iris Forceps is the way the 1x2 teeth drop below the level of the shaft upon closure. This thoughtful design minimizes protrusion, reducing the risk of unintentional damage to surrounding tissues during delicate procedures. The controlled closure helps maintain a safe, secure grip while ensuring that the forceps do not interfere with adjacent structures.

Ergonomic Handle 

The forceps are designed with an ergonomic handle that allows the surgeon to maintain a comfortable, steady grip during surgery. This design reduces hand fatigue, even during extended procedures, providing the surgeon with better control and minimizing strain on the hand and wrist. The smooth, non-slip surface ensures that the forceps remain securely in the surgeon’s hand throughout the procedure.

Ideal for Iris-Related Ophthalmic Procedures

The Gills Iris Forceps are specifically designed for iris-related surgeries, including iridectomy, iris repair, and iris prolapse management. Their precise design and delicate grip make them an essential tool for any ophthalmologist working with iris tissue, helping to ensure that delicate tissue is handled safely and effectively throughout the procedure.
