The Ophthalmology Castro Cyclo Spatula 1 × 16 mm Blade is a premium ophthalmic microsurgical instrument engineered for surgeons who require precise control during delicate ocular procedures. Featuring a 1 mm wide and 16 mm long spatula blade, this instrument is specifically designed for controlled tissue dissection, separation, and manipulation within the anterior chamber and other confined intraocular spaces.
Constructed from premium medical-grade stainless steel, the Castro Cyclo Spatula delivers superior strength, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. Its precision-manufactured blade maintains excellent dimensional stability and a smooth atraumatic surface even after repeated sterilization, making it a trusted instrument for hospitals, ophthalmology clinics, ambulatory surgery centers, and specialized eye care facilities.
The 1 × 16 mm spatula blade provides an extended working surface that allows surgeons to access deeper surgical sites while maintaining precise control over delicate ocular tissues. The wider blade distributes force evenly, making it ideal for gentle tissue elevation, separation of tissue planes, adhesion release, and manipulation of intraocular structures with minimal trauma. Its elongated profile is particularly useful during complex anterior segment procedures that require greater reach and enhanced visibility.
The Castro Cyclo Spatula is commonly used during glaucoma surgery, cyclodialysis procedures, cataract surgery, anterior segment reconstruction, and various microsurgical ophthalmic interventions. It assists surgeons in carefully dissecting tissues, repositioning ocular structures, and maintaining controlled surgical access while preserving surrounding anatomy.
An ergonomically balanced handle offers superior tactile feedback and a secure grip, allowing smooth and accurate instrument movements under the operating microscope. The lightweight design minimizes hand fatigue during prolonged procedures and enhances microsurgical precision, contributing to improved surgical efficiency.
The instrument features a smooth satin surgical finish that facilitates easy cleaning and supports strict infection prevention standards. Fully compatible with standard steam autoclave sterilization, it is intended for repeated professional use while maintaining its precision, appearance, and structural integrity.
Healthcare professionals trust the Ophthalmology Castro Cyclo Spatula 1 × 16 mm Blade for its exceptional craftsmanship, ergonomic design, and reliable performance. Its extended blade provides greater versatility during advanced ophthalmic procedures, making it an indispensable component of comprehensive ophthalmic surgical instrument sets.
Whether performing cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, cyclodialysis, or anterior segment reconstruction, the Castro Cyclo Spatula 1 × 16 mm Blade delivers the precision, durability, and control required for successful microsurgical outcomes.
Designed to meet international standards for ophthalmic surgical instrumentation, this reusable instrument supports safe, efficient, and consistent performance in modern ophthalmic practice.
