Precision Chalazion Management with Stable Locking Control

The Desmarres chalazion forceps provide a reliable mechanical solution for stabilizing eyelid tissue during minor surgical procedures. Designed with a solid lower plate and an open upper plate, this instrument allows for effective eversion and exposure of the tarsal plate while minimizing trauma to surrounding structures. The integrated locking thumb screw supports consistent pressure retention, freeing the surgeon’s hands for precise incision or curettage tasks. With a compact 3 1/2-inch length and flat handle design, it offers balanced control and tactile feedback essential for delicate ophthalmic and general surgery workflows requiring secure tissue manipulation.

Use Cases

• Everts and stabilizes the eyelid to expose chalazia for incision and drainage procedures
• Secures tarsal plate tissue during curettage to prevent slippage and supports precise removal
• Provides stable retraction for minor lid surgeries requiring clear visualization of the inner conjunctival surface
• Assists in general surgical tasks requiring fine, locked grasping of small tissue sections
