Vitrectomy contact lens, reusable

Vitrectomy contact lenses are reusable ophthalmic devices placed on the cornea to enhance visualization during vitreoretinal surgery. They help surgeons examine the retina and fundus more clearly through an ophthalmic microscope, improving precision in procedures like vitrectomy.

These lenses are typically made from transparent materials like PMMA, glass, or quartz and must be sterilized before each use. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their surgical risk and intended use, often requiring compliance with sterilization standards and surgical instrument guidelines.
