Thorpe corneal fixation forceps 3 3/4 straight shafts 0.12mm 2x3 teeth set at 45° and tying platforms flat handle

Controlled Handling for Fine Corneal Fixation Work

Thorpe corneal fixation forceps are designed for controlled grasping and stabilization during fine tissue-handling tasks. Their 3 3/4-inch length provides a practical working reach, while the straight shaft supports direct instrument positioning and a clear approach to the operative field. The 2X3 tooth jaw pattern is suited to securing tissue during delicate fixation and manipulation. A 0.12mm dimension reflects the instrument’s fine design for precision-oriented handling. Appropriate for ophthalmic applications and relevant general-surgery workflows, these forceps provide a focused option when practitioners need a compact, purpose-built instrument for controlled grasping rather than broad tissue handling.

Use Cases

• Support corneal fixation tasks requiring a fine, toothed grasp and controlled positioning.
• Handle and stabilize tissue during ophthalmic procedures where a straight forceps approach is useful.
• Provide focused grasping in general-surgery workflows involving delicate instrument manipulation.
• Use the straight shaft to maintain a direct line of approach when positioning the forceps at the operative field.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the forceps according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the straight shaft and 2X3 tooth jaw pattern for alignment, damage, residue, or impaired movement before use.
• Handle the toothed jaws carefully to help preserve their intended grasping profile.
• Store the instrument in a clean, protected location to reduce the risk of damage or contamination.

General use; follow facility protocols.
