Intraocular retractors are reusable surgical tools used in eye procedures to gently hold and stretch delicate tissues, such as the iris, during operations like cataract surgery or corneal transplants. Their design ensures precise manipulation while minimizing trauma to surrounding structures, helping surgeons maintain clear visibility and access within the eye.
These devices are typically classified as surgical instruments and regulated under medical device standards, often requiring validation for reuse safety and sterility processes. They are supplied sterile or pre-cleaned for surgical reuse, adhering to strict infection control protocols to ensure patient safety in repeated use.
