The Desmarres Chalazion Forceps are indispensable instruments in ophthalmology and oculoplastic surgery, primarily used for the removal of chalazia and eyelid cysts. Their unique clamp-style design allows surgeons to stabilize and isolate lesions effectively while providing controlled pressure to reduce intraoperative bleeding.
Clinical Applications
These forceps are most commonly used in:
-
Chalazion removal surgeries – Isolating and exposing the lesion for safe excision.
-
Eyelid cyst excision – Ensuring stability and minimal trauma.
-
Minor ophthalmic procedures – Providing tissue control and hemostasis.
-
Training environments – Preferred by ophthalmic trainees due to safety and control.
Their specialized design makes them highly valuable in ophthalmology clinics, surgical centers, and hospitals.
Design Advantages
The Desmarres Chalazion Forceps offer multiple functional benefits:
-
Unique plate-and-ring jaw design – One jaw has a flat plate while the other has an open ring, creating a clamp that stabilizes the cyst.
-
Controlled compression – Reduces bleeding and enhances visibility during surgery.
-
Precise lesion isolation – Allows surgeons to target the chalazion with accuracy.
-
Ergonomic handles – Provide surgeon comfort and reduce fatigue.
-
German stainless steel construction – Ensures high durability, corrosion resistance, and performance reliability.
