Soft cutter
Katena has announced the launch of the Donnenfeld Micro IOL soft cutter designed to perform IOL explantation through a 1.5mm incision. “This new scissors features a lightweight titanium handle and 4mm-long stainless steel blades to cut foldable silicone or acrylic lenses,” said a company spokeswoman. “ The blades have multiple notches on the surface to securely grasp the IOL and prevent slippage during cutting. Additionally, three circular openings along the 18-gauge straight shaft allow for more thorough and efficient cleaning,” she said.
