General ophthalmology knives are miniature versions of conventional scalpel blades. Some of these knives have refinements in shape to make them functionally superior.
Our Sharpedge brand General ophthalmology knives are manufactured using imported surgical grade stainless steel material. They offer a wide array of designs. This gives the surgeon the flexibility to choose the appropriate design that suits his/her surgical technique. General ophthalmology knives are available in Classicline.
Primeline knives are made from stainless steel wires of different gauges traditionally known as Round Stock knives. They are sharper and finer compared to Classicline and they offer better maneuverability and visibility. The Blunt Tip Keratome knives in Primeline are available in the 3.2mm, 3.5mm, 3.8mm, 4.0mm, 5.0mm, 5.1mm, 5.2mm, 5.5mm, 6.0mm and 6.2mm variants.
Slimline knives are made from finer, pre-hardened stainless steel strips. The angled polycarbonate handle design is the identity of Slimline knives. Since the angulation is given in the handle we are able to considerably reduce the use of stainless steel material. Slimline offers best value for money.
