Giannetti MICS Capsulorrhexis Forceps
for use through a 1.5mm incision

This forceps has been designed to perform a capsulorrhexis through a 1.5mm micro incision. It features very thin shanks that are less than 1mm wide in the closed position and are limited to a maximum spread of 2mm. The extremely small, delicate tips can be used to make the initial tear as well as to grasp the capsule while performing a capsulorrhexis. The shanks are angled and vaulted to provide better access to the capsule without stretching the incision, and the 8.5mm diameter round handle is ergonomically designed for better control. According to Dr. Giannetti, the forceps works equally well when performing an anterior or posterior capsulorrhexis.
